It's possible that the platform is not allowing reboot via TCO timer
expiration.
Also, differentiate between not finding a chipset that has TCO, and the case
where TCO is present but the driver fails to initialize for some reason.

According to 9.1.33 on p.343 of ICH8.pdf RCBA can be disabled by
hardware if bit 0 of RCBA register is not set.
Perform correct check for this to prevent memory corruption under
some virtual machines where this feature is disabled.

bugzilla: #12363
commit 7cd5b08be3 added a second regression:
some Dell's and Compaq's lockup on boot. So we revert most of the code.
The ICH9 reboot issue remains in place and will need some more fixing... :-(

The code used '&= 0x00002000' when it tried to set the TCO_EN bit, which
obviously didn't set that bit at all, but instead just reset all the
other bits in the SMI_EN register.
This bug seemingly caused various random behavior, with Frans Pop
reporting that X.org just silently hung at startup and Rafael Wysocki
reports the fan spinning with full speed.
See

The problem seems to have been triggered by "[WATCHDOG] iTCO_wdt :
problem with rebooting on new ICH9 based motherboards" (commit
7cd5b08be3), but the bogus code existed
before that too (in the "supermicro_old_pre_stop()" function), it just
apparently never showed up due to different logic.
In that commit the broken code got moved around and now gets executed
much more.

The iTCO_wdt code was not clearing the correct bits.
It now clears the timeout status bit and then the
SECOND_TO_STS bit and then the BOOT_STS bit.
Note: we should first clear the SECOND_TO_STS bit
before clearing the BOOT_STS bit.

Bugzilla #9868: On Intel motherboards with the ICH9 based I/O controllers
(Like DP35DP and DG33FB) the iTCO timer counts but it doesn't reboot the
system after the counter expires.
This patch fixes this by moving the enabling & disabling of the TCO_EN bit
in the SMI_EN register into the start and stop code.

This brings the watchdog drivers into line with coding style.
This patch takes cares of the indentation as described in chapter 1.
Main changes:
* Re-structure the ioctl switch call for all drivers as follows:
switch (cmd) {
case WDIOC_GETSUPPORT:
case WDIOC_GETSTATUS:
case WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS:
case WDIOC_GETTEMP:
case WDIOC_SETOPTIONS:
case WDIOC_KEEPALIVE:
case WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT:
case WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT:
case WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT:
default:
}
This to make the migration from the drivers to the uniform watchdog
device driver easier in the future.
