Pádraig Brady requested the possibility of not disabling the watchdog
at module load time or kernel boot time if it had been previously enabled
in the bios. It may help rebooting the machine if it freezes before the
userland daemon kicks in.

If no address is given for the W83697HF/HG watchdog IO port, stop looping
through possible locations when a watchdog device has been found.

Some watchdog drivers initialize global spinlocks in module's init function
which is tolerable, but some do it in PCI probe function. So, switch to
static initialization to fix theoretical bugs and, more importantly, stop
giving people bad examples.

* Convert files to UTF-8.
* Also correct some people's names
(one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
7bit.)
* Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)
* Update Eberhard Mönkeberg's address (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/8/313)
