That's not that hard, we can remove the initialisation of wdt_timeout to 
WDT_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT and use the 0 magic value, which is not an 
acceptable timeout value, to tell whether the variable was set with a 
module parameter or not.

I followed what was done in the at91sam9_wdt driver but I agree the 
module parameter should override the DT property, if we all agree on 
that, I will also change this behavior in at91sam9_wdt in v2, at least 
for the sake of coherency between drivers.
