Thanks Tom.

This patch series should not introduce any functional changes. The
next one though, which migrates the WATCHDOG_RESET into the cyclic
function execution IF needs a quite some testing. Perhaps it makes
sense to pull this other series as well quite early in the release
cycle, so that it receives a lot of "attention"? So that we have
time to fix potential problems here.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Stefan
