[PATCH v2 04/12] watchdog: s3c2410: Let kernel kick watchdog

[Sam Protsenko]

When "tmr_atboot" module param is set, the watchdog is started in
driver's probe. In that case, also set WDOG_HW_RUNNING bit to let
watchdog core driver know it's running. This way watchdog core can kick
the watchdog for us (if CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED option is
enabled), until user space takes control.

WDOG_HW_RUNNING bit must be set before registering the watchdog. So the
"tmr_atboot" handling code is moved before watchdog registration, to
avoid performing the same check twice. This is also logical because
WDOG_HW_RUNNING bit makes WDT core expect actually running watchdog.

Changes in v2:
  - Added explanation on moving the code block to commit message
  - [PATCH 03/12] handles the case when tmr_atboot is present but valid
    timeout wasn't found
