ipq40xx: kernel compressed boot: reset watchdog countdown

If the watchdog is enabled, set the timeout to 30 seconds before
decompress is started.

Mikrotik ipq40xx devices running with RouterBoot have the SoC watchdog
enabled and running with a timeout that does not allow time for the
kernel to decompress and manage the watchdog.

On ipq40xx RouterBoot TFTP boot the watchdog countdown is reset before:

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] arm: compressed: set ipq40xx watchdog to allow boot
+
+For IPQ40XX systems where the SoC watchdog is activated before linux,
+the watchdog timer may be too small for linux to finish uncompress,
+boot, and watchdog management start.
+If the watchdog is enabled, set the timeout for it to 30 seconds.
+The functionality and offsets were copied from:
+drivers/watchdog/qcom-wdt.c qcom_wdt_set_timeout & qcom_wdt_start
+The watchdog memory address was taken from:
+arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-ipq4019.dtsi
+
+This was required on Mikrotik IPQ40XX consumer hardware using Mikrotik's
+RouterBoot bootloader.
