Move watchdog examples to samples and remove it from Documentation
Makefile. Create a new Makefile to build watchdog. It can be built
from top level directory or from watchdog directory:
Run make -C samples/watchdog or cd samples/watchdog; make

the watchdog is pinged within a certain time, this time is called the
timeout or margin. The simplest way to ping the watchdog is to write
some data to the device. So a very simple watchdog daemon would look
-like this source file: see Documentation/watchdog/src/watchdog-simple.c
+like this source file: see samples/watchdog/watchdog-simple.c
A more advanced driver could for example check that a HTTP server is
still responding before doing the write call to ping the watchdog.
Minor numbers are however allocated for it.
