Subject: [PATCH v2] watchdog: meson: keep running if already active

If the watchdog is already running (e.g.: started by bootloader) then
the kernel driver should keep the watchdog active but the amlogic driver
turns it off.

Let the driver fix the clock rate if already active because we do not
know the previous timebase value. To avoid unintentional resetting we
temporarily set it to its maximum value.

Then keep the enable bit if is was previously active.

In v1, we read watchdog's enable bit before writing its config register,
then we write the register, this will always stop the watchdog. If it
was previously active we restart it. So, in v1, if the kernel crashes
just before the watchdog restarts it will be stuck forever.

In v2, we read watchdog's enable bit before writing its config register,
if it is already active we keep the enable bit when writing the
register.
