Remove watchdog_stop_on_reboot()

Meson platform still have some hardware drivers problems for some
configurations which can freeze device on shutdown/reboot stage and i
think better to have reboot warranty by default.

I feel that it is important to keep the watchdog running during the
reboot sequence, in the event that an abnormal driver freezes the reboot
process.

This is my personal opinion and I hope the driver authors will agree
with my proposal, or just ignore this commit if not.
