On some machines it might be desirable to keep the watchdog that is
started in the boot ROM running until userspace starts stroking it to be
able to handle boot failures.
To not introduce regressions for users not caring about the watchdog
keep the previous behaviour of disabling the watchdog in the probe
function unless a module parameter stop_at_probe is set to false.
