[PATCH] drivers: watchdog: pc87413_wdt: Fix Race condition bug

[madhuparnabhowmik10]

From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik10@xxxxxxxxx>

After misc_register the open() callback can be called.
However the base address (swc_base_addr) is set after misc_register()
in init.
As a result, if open callback is called before pc87413_get_swc_base_addr()
then in the following call chain: pc87413_open() -> pc87413_refresh() ->
pc87413_swc_bank3() : The value of swc_base_addr will be -1.
Therefore, do misc_register() after pc87413_get_swc_base_addr().
