/* Watchdog timer management. These functions in this file provide a
 * convenient interface to the timers library that manages a list of
 * watchdog timers. All details of scheduling an alarm at the CLOCK task
 * are hidden behind this interface.
 *
 * The entry points into this file are:
 *   init_timer:     initialize a timer structure
 *   set_timer:      reset and existing or set a new watchdog timer
 *   cancel_timer:   remove a timer from the list of timers
 *   expire_timers:  check for expired timers and run watchdog functions
 *
