From 9c963ba0e0bacfb13c41d3334630ff67044ac159 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wolfram Sang Date: Wed, 25 May 2016 08:37:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: softdog: remove obsolete comments The history is obsolete, especially since we switched to watchdog framework. The section markers also don't make sense anymore given the small size of the driver.
