watchdog: f71808e_wdt: do stricter parameter validation

Browse source

We check the f71862fg_pin module parameter every time a watchdog device
for the f71862fg is opened, but the parameter can't change at runtime.

If we move the check to the start of init:

  - We catch userspace passing invalid, but unused, values
  - We check the condition only once
  - We simplify the code

Do so.
