The subject is misleading - what this really does it to honor
that/if a watchdog is already running. However, WDOG_HW_RUNNING
should not generally be set/cleared in the start/stop function.
Also, calling mtk_wdt_stop is pointless if WDT_MODE_EN is not set,
since clearing WDT_MODE_EN is all it does. On top of that,
setting WDOG_HW_RUNNING in the probe function requires that
max_hw_heartbeat_ms is set (instead of max_timeout).

So if you really want to honor that the watchdog is already running
at boot, you would have to initialize max_hw_heartbeat_ms, set
WDOG_HW_RUNNING explicitly, and possibly call the ping function
before changing the timeout.

Thanks,
Guenter
