    watchdog: ts72xx_wdt: disable watchdog at probe
    
    Since it may be already enabled by bootloader or some other utility. This patch
    makes sure that the watchdog is disabled before any userspace daemon opens the
    device. It is also required by the watchdog API.

    watchdog: sb_wdog: release irq and reboot notifier in error path and module_exit()
    
    irq and reboot notifier are acquired in module_init() but never released.
    They should be released correctly, otherwise reloading the module or error
    during module_init() will cause a problem.
