[PATCH v5] watchdog: imx2_wdg: Allow ping on suspend

The i.MX watchdog cannot be disabled by software once it has been
enabled. This means that it can't be stopped before suspend.

For systems that enter low power mode this is fine, as the watchdog will
be automatically stopped by hardware in low power mode. Not all i.MX
platforms support low power mode in the mainline kernel. For example the
i.MX7D does not enter low power mode and so will be rebooted 2 minutes
after entering sleep states.

This patch introduces the "fsl,imx7d-wdt" compatible string
which enables ping on suspend support. This allows the i.MX7D systems to
suspend without triggering the watchdog.
