+ Book-E watchdog driver. A watchdog "event" occurs when the bit
+ position represented by this number transitions from zero to one.
+
+ For Freescale Book-E processors, this is a number between 0 and 63.
+ For other Book-E processors, this is a number between 0 and 3.
+
+ The value can be overidden by the wdt_period command-line parameter.
