+/* RIO uses the NatSemi Super I/O power management logical device
+ * as its' watchdog.
+ *
+ * When the watchdog triggers, it asserts a line to the BBC (Boot Bus
+ * Controller) of the machine.  The BBC can only be configured to
+ * trigger a power-on reset when the signal is asserted.  The BBC
+ * can be configured to ignore the signal entirely as well.
+ *
+ * The only Super I/O device register we care about is at index
+ * 0x05 (WDTO_INDEX) which is the watchdog time-out in minutes (1-255).
+ * If set to zero, this disables the watchdog.  When set, the system
+ * must periodically (before watchdog expires) clear (set to zero) and
+ * re-set the watchdog else it will trigger.
+ *
+ * There are two other indexed watchdog registers inside this Super I/O
+ * logical device, but they are unused.  The first, at index 0x06 is
+ * the watchdog control and can be used to make the watchdog timer re-set
+ * when the PS/2 mouse or serial lines show activity.  The second, at
+ * index 0x07 is merely a sampling of the line from the watchdog to the
+ * BBC.
+ *
+ * The watchdog device generates no interrupts.
