I finally had the time to look into this. Sorry for the late reply.

Changing the watchdog core to pass the restart mode (or action)
and the cmd/data pointer to the driver would be trivial and should
be done instead.

I wrote a patch to do just that. I'll send it out later today for review,
assuming it passes my internal tests.
