watchdog: core: add restart handler support
Many watchdog drivers implement the same code to register a restart handler. This patch provides a generic way to set such a function. The patch adds a new restart watchdog operation. If a restart priority greater than 0 is needed, the driver can call watchdog_set_restart_priority to set it.
