In order to run the watchdog selftest with the kselftest runner, the
loop responsible for pinging the watchdog should be finite. This
change limits the loop to 5 iterations by default and introduces a new
'-c' option to adjust the number of pings as needed.

This patch makes the test run finite in all cases changing the bevavior
to run it forever?

So this test no longer runs forever?

That's correct, with this patch applied the test no longer runs forever.
I understand you prefer the current behavior - how about keeping the
keep_alive() loop infinite by default and only making it finite when the
-c argument is passed? Would that be reasonable?
Thanks for your feedback!

Yes. I am open to taking the patch if the default behavior doesn't change.
