drivers: watchdog: rdc321x_wdt: Fix race condition bugs
In rdc321x_wdt_probe(), rdc321x_wdt_device.queue is initialized after misc_register(), hence if ioctl is called before its initialization which can call rdc321x_wdt_start() function, it will see an uninitialized value of rdc321x_wdt_device.queue, hence initialize it before misc_register(). Also, rdc321x_wdt_device.default_ticks is accessed in reset() function called from write callback, thus initialize it before misc_register(). Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
