[PATCH] watchdog: at91sam9_wdt: various fixes

Fix the secs_to_ticks macro in case 0 is passed as an argument.
Rework the heartbeat calculation to increase the security margin of the
watchdog reset timer.
Use the min_heartbeat value instead of the calculated heartbeat value for
the first watchdog reset.
