The dw_wdt has an external reset line, that can keep the device in reset

the watchdog once it was started.

Get the reset lines for this core from the devicetree.
If resets are not specified just warn but don't fail probing to be compatible
with all users.

This situation is already handled by the driver. Actually, I don't even
know what will happen, since the watchdog core will continue to ping
the watchdog after close, and it won't be possible to unload the driver
if the watchdog is running.

I don't think a warning is warranted in this case. We did not need one before,
we should not need one now.
