This rewrites the IXP4xx watchdog driver as follows:
- Spawn the watchdog driver as a platform device from the timer
driver. It's one device in the hardware, and the fact that
Linux splits the handling into two different devices is
a Linux pecularity, and thus it becomes a Linux pecularity
to spawn a separate watchdog driver.
- Spawn the watchdog driver from the timer driver at probe().
This is well after the timer driver as actually registered and
started and we know the register base is available.
- Instead of looping back callbacks to the timer drivers for all
watchdog calls, pass the register base to the watchdog driver
and manage the registers there. The two drivers aren't even
interested in the same register so the spinlock is totally
surplus, delete it.
- Replace pretty much all of the content in the watchdog driver
with a simple, modern watchdog driver utilizing the watchdog
core instead of registering its own misc device and ioctl()
handling.
- Drop module parameters as the same already exist in the
watchdog core.
What remains is a slim elegant (IMO) watchdog driver using the
watchdog core, spawning from device tree or boardfile alike.

We must not pet a running watchdog when handle_boot_enabled is off
because this will kick off automatic triggering before userland is
running, defeating the purpose of the handle_boot_enabled control.
Furthermore, don't ping in case watchdog_set_last_hw_keepalive was
called incorrectly when the hardware watchdog is actually not running.
Fixed: cef9572e9af3 ("watchdog: add support for adjusting last known HW keepalive time")

This adds device tree probing to the MAX63xx driver so it can be
instantiated from the device tree. We use the generic fwnode-based
method to get to the match data and clean up by constifying the
functions as the match is indeed a const.
