The orion_wdt_irq invokes panic() so we are going to reset the CPU

Unless I am missing something, this assumes that the interrupt is
handled, ie that the system is not stuck with interrupts disabled.
This makes the watchdog less reliable. This added verbosity comes
at a significant cost. I'd like to get input from others if this
is acceptable.

That would be different if there was a means to configure a pretimeout,
ie a means to tell the system to generate an irq first, followed by a
hard reset if the interrupt is not served. that does not seem to be
the case here, though.
