Subject: [PATCH] Watchdog: sp5100_tco: Lower verbosity of disabled watchdog hardware

If watchdog hardware has been disabled, currently the kernel driver
will show at err level during probe:

"Watchdog hardware is disabled"

This is unnecessarily verbose as there is already a -ENODEV returned.
Lower the level to debug.
