watchdog: orion_wdt: Propagate errors from optional IRQ lookup

This commit updates the optional IRQ handling in the probe function. Instead
of continuing without an IRQ on all errors, it propagates errors other than
-ENXIO (such as -EPROBE_DEFER or -EINVAL) returned by
platform_get_irq_optional().

[Severity: High]
Does this early return bypass the clock cleanup? 

Earlier in orion_wdt_probe(), the hardware clock is initialized and enabled by
dev->data->clock_init(pdev, dev). The other error paths in this function jump
to the disable_clk label to clean it up.

If we return directly here when an error like -EPROBE_DEFER occurs, it appears
we might leak the hardware clock reference and its enablement state because we
bypass clk_disable_unprepare() and clk_put() in the disable_clk error path. 
This could lead to repeated resource leaks if probe deferral happens multiple 
times.

Should this use goto disable_clk instead of returning directly?
