This should really be allocated, and "watchdog" is a terrible variable name
even if static, especially given the previous patch.

This needs to save the actual timeout, which differs from the
configured one if larger than 255.

This is wrong unless the watchdog can not be stopped.
With the bit set, the core will continue pinging the satchdog even
after it was stopped. The bit should be set only if the watchdog
can not be stopped once started, which I think is not the case here.
