Subject: [PATCH 9/9] spi: axi-spi-engine: add watchdog timer

If there is an issue with the AXI SPI Engine hardware a scheduled
transfer might never be completed and spi_sync() will block forever.
This due to the uninterruptible wait for completion waiting for the
spi_finalize_current_message() that never comes.

Add a watchdog timer that will abort a transfer 5 seconds after it has
been started. This will potentially leave the hardware in a broken state
but it allows software to recover and allow to better diagnose the
underlying issue.
