[PATCH v2 2/2] watchdog: stm32_iwdg: Propagate errors from optional IRQ lookup

From: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui at gmail.com>

platform_get_irq_optional() returns a positive IRQ number on success or
a negative error code on failure. For an optional IRQ, -ENXIO indicates
that no IRQ is available, while other errors should be propagated.

Propagate errors such as -EPROBE_DEFER and -EINVAL instead of continuing
probe without the IRQ.

Changes in v2:
 - Update the commit message and error handling.
 - Propagate all errors from platform_get_irq_optional() except -ENXIO,
   instead of only handling -EPROBE_DEFER.
