The Geode CS5536 watchdog driver didn't get accepted into the upstream
kernel until a couple of weeks ago.  It's not available in Ubuntu's
2.6.24 (unless they patched it in but I highly doubt that).

If you grab a current development kernel the driver is available and
should respond to the generic Linux watchdog interface.
