[PATCH 1/5] watchdog: gpio: Allow devices described by software nodes

[Florian Fainelli]

The driver reads its configuration through device properties and obtains
its GPIO with the descriptor API. Neither operation requires ACPI or OF,
so allow the driver to be selected on platforms using software nodes.

Add a platform module alias so a non-OF platform device can also load the
driver when it is built as a module.
