Subject: [PATCH v2] watchdog: sp5100_tco: Add "action" module parameter

Allow configuring the "action" bit, as documented in [1].

Previously, the only action supported by this module was to reset the
system (0).  It can now be configured to power off (1) instead.

Changes since v1:
 - Drop the rename of the SP5100_WDT_ACTION_RESET define
 - Make the new parameter not visible in sysfs for consistency
