watchdog: Introduce hardware maximum heartbeat in watchdog core

Introduce an optional hardware maximum heartbeat in the watchdog core.
The hardware maximum heartbeat can be lower than the maximum timeout.

Drivers can set the maximum hardware heartbeat value in the watchdog data
structure. If the configured timeout exceeds the maximum hardware heartbeat,
the watchdog core enables a timer function to assist sending keepalive
requests to the watchdog driver.

* max_hw_heartbeat_ms: Maximum hardware heartbeat, in milli-seconds.
If set, the infrastructure will send heartbeats to the watchdog driver
if 'timeout' is larger than max_hw_heartbeat_ms, unless WDOG_ACTIVE
is set and userspace failed to send a heartbeat for at least 'timeout'
seconds.
* reboot_nb: notifier block that is registered for reboot notifications, for
internal use only. If the driver calls watchdog_stop_on_reboot, watchdog core
will stop the watchdog on such notifications.

Drivers implementing max_hw_heartbeat_ms set the hardware watchdog heartbeat
to the minimum of timeout and max_hw_heartbeat_ms. Those drivers set the
timeout value of the watchdog_device either to the requested timeout value
(if it is larger than max_hw_heartbeat_ms), or to the achieved timeout value.
(Note: the WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT needs to be set in the options field of the
watchdog's info structure).
