[PATCHv2 2/2] watchdog: fix w83627hf_wdt reboot due to timeout expired

[Tony Chung]

Observed that the w83627hf watchdog timer start counting during reboot.
If the system load the driver after 5  minutes, it rebooted immediately because of timer expired.
For example, fsck took more than 5 minutes to run, then reboot will occurred.
