Actually, there is no way but the module parameter to set the desired
heartbeat. This patch allows a platform code to set it in the device
platform data. This is convenient for platforms and built-in drivers.

To do so, initialize heartbeat to zero to allow the module parameter to
takes precedence over the platform setting. If not set, it will still
default to DEFAULT_HEARTBEAT.
