Thanks for the update (v6 and v7)!

Upon given it more thought, I'm a bit worried about restoring the
original time left.
In my experiments, it may take a few seconds before userspace fully resumes.
If time_left was a small value, the system may reboot before userspace has
a chance to send its next ping.
This was with NFS root, so heavily impacted by the delays introduced by the
PHY link getting up again.
So just using rwdt_stop()/rwdt_start() may be the safest option.
