watchdog: imgpdc: Fix probe NULL pointer dereference
The IMG PDC watchdog probe function calls pdc_wdt_stop() prior to watchdog_set_drvdata(), causing a NULL pointer dereference when pdc_wdt_stop() retrieves the struct pdc_wdt_dev pointer using watchdog_get_drvdata() and reads the register base address through it. Fix by moving the watchdog_set_drvdata() call earlier, to where various other pdc_wdt->wdt_dev fields are initialised.
