Many watchdog drivers register a reboot notifier in order to stop the
watchdog on system reboot. Thus we can factorize this code in the
watchdog core.
For that purpose, a new notifier block is added in watchdog_device for
internal use only, as well as a new watchdog_stop_on_reboot helper
function.
If this helper is called, watchdog core registers the related notifier
block and will stop the watchdog when SYS_HALT or SYS_DOWN is received.
Since this operation can be critical on some platforms, abort the device
registration if the reboot notifier registration fails.

Series looks good to me.

I'll apply the series to my watchdog-next branch and run it through a test
cycle.
