Akhilesh Patil e822f368f7 selftests: watchdog: skip ping loop if WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING not supported
[ Upstream commit e8cfc524ea ]

Check if watchdog device supports WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING option before
entering keep_alive() ping test loop. Fix watchdog-test silently looping
if ioctl based ping is not supported by the device. Exit from test in
such case instead of getting stuck in loop executing failing keep_alive()

watchdog_info:
 identity:              m41t93 rtc Watchdog
 firmware_version:      0
Support/Status: Set timeout (in seconds)
Support/Status: Watchdog triggers a management or other external alarm not a reboot

Watchdog card disabled.
Watchdog timeout set to 5 seconds.
Watchdog ping rate set to 2 seconds.
Watchdog card enabled.
WDIOC_KEEPALIVE not supported by this device

without this change
Watchdog card disabled.
Watchdog timeout set to 5 seconds.
Watchdog ping rate set to 2 seconds.
Watchdog card enabled.
Watchdog Ticking Away!
(Where test stuck here forver silently)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
