Add support for watchdog drivers to initialize/set the timeout field
of the watchdog_device structure. The timeout field is initialised
either with the module timeout parameter value (if valid) or with the
timeout-sec dt property (if valid). If both are invalid the initial
value is unchanged.

This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only
allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get
called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread,
or could share the fd after a fork.

This causes 2 potential problems:
1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear,
   if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active
   bit indicates it is running or visa versa.

2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one
   watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary
   true atm.

We keep the old /dev/watchdog interface file for the first watchdog via
miscdev. This is basically a cut and paste of the relevant interface code
from the rtc driver layer tweaked for watchdog.

The watchdog_core include file should have been named
watchdog_core.h and not watchdog_dev.h . Correct this.

Add min_timeout (minimum timeout) and max_timeout
values so that the framework can check if the new
timeout value is between the minimum and maximum
timeout values. If both values are 0, then the
framework will leave the check for the watchdog
device driver itself.

The WatchDog Timer Driver Core is a framework
that contains the common code for all watchdog-driver's.
It also introduces a watchdog device structure and the
operations that go with it.

This is the introduction of this framework. This part
supports the minimal watchdog userspace API (or with
other words: the functionality to use /dev/watchdog's
open, release and write functionality as defined in
the simplest watchdog API). Extra functionality will
follow in the next set of patches.
