drivers: watchdog: rdc321x_wdt: Fix race condition bugs 

[ Upstream commit 4b2e7f99cd ]

In rdc321x_wdt_probe(), rdc321x_wdt_device.queue is initialized
after misc_register(), hence if ioctl is called before its
initialization which can call rdc321x_wdt_start() function,
it will see an uninitialized value of rdc321x_wdt_device.queue,
hence initialize it before misc_register().
Also, rdc321x_wdt_device.default_ticks is accessed in reset()
function called from write callback, thus initialize it before
misc_register().
