It does fire repeatedly but I should have put in the new expiration
period.  I added some prints to the timer and without resetting the
expiration the timer would pop faster, but still less than 5 seconds.
I've added the expiration here and see very even pops on 5 second
intervals.

Subject: [net-next PATCH 1/1] qlge: Add watchdog timer.

Add periodic heartbeat register read to trigger the eeh
recovery process.
We see cases where an eeh error was injected and the slot was
suspended.  An asic access attempt is required to flush the recovery process,
but without interrupts the process can stall.
Adding this periodic register read causes the recovery process to begin.
