@sfbest, no objection but just a question: The reason the watchdog is
typically built in is so that it is immediately active on boot.
By making this a module, I'm wondering if this could expose a time where
the watchdog should be active but isn't?
/me is 100% sure there's some valid reason for doing this but I don't have
enough information to approve the change.
