[PATCH] watchdog: omap_wdt: start_enabled module parameter

[poeschel]

From: Lars Poeschel <poeschel@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a start_enabled module parameter to the omap_wdt that starts the
watchdog on module insertion. The default value is 0 which does not
start the watchdog - which also does not change the behaviour if the
parameter is not given.
