You said previously that the pretimeout would prevent the real timeout / reset
from happening, and the driver has no provision to set the real timeout.
That makes this a no-go.

The idea behind the pretimeout governor is that it can be disabled
by setting it to "none", and if pretimeout governors are disabled
it is supposed to be a no-op. The above bypasses this mechanism
and is not acceptable.

This suggests that the real timeout indeed doesn't happen when
WDT_MODE_IRQ_EN is set. Again, this is unacceptable.

On a side note, formatting is way off here.
