Most of the watchdog code is duplicated between the machine restart code and
the watchdog driver. Add the restart hook to the watchdog driver, to be able to
remove it from the machine code eventually.

<title>MIPS: OCTEON: watchdog: don't jump to bootloader without entry address</title>

If CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is set, the driver thinks bootloader entry
address is configured and we should jump there. However, this is
not necessarily true if the kernel is booted on a system
with older/incompatible bootloader.

Add dynamic checks for the bootloader entry address.
