On early revisions of some R-Car Gen2 SoCs, and depending on SMP
configuration, the system may fail to restart on watchdog time-out, and
lock up instead.
Specifically:
- On R-Car H2 ES1.0 and M2-W ES1.0, watchdog restart fails unless
only the first CPU core is in use (using e.g. the "maxcpus=1" kernel
commandline option).
- On R-Car V2H ES1.1, watchdog restart fails unless SMP is disabled
completely (using CONFIG_SMP=n during build configuration, or using
the "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0" kernel commandline options).
Prevent using the watchdog in impacted cases by blacklisting the
affected SoCs, using the minimum known working revisions (ES2.0 on R-Car
H2, and ES3.0 on M2-W), and taking the actual SMP software configuration
into account.

To be folded into Fabrizio Castro's "watchdog: renesas_wdt: Add R-Car
Gen2 support".
Note that I cannot use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SMP), as setup_max_cpus does
not exist for CONFIG_SMP=n.
Any reports on R-Car M2-W ES2.0 and V2H ES2.0+ are welcomed!
As the failure is due to an integration issue, and the watchdog itself
is working fine, an alternative solution would be to move the check to
the code that installs the reset trigger ("soc: renesas: rcar-rst:
Enable watchdog as reset trigger for Gen2").
However, doing so would mean that:
1. The user could enable and seemingly use the watchdog, but watchdog
timeout would not restart the system,
2. The same check should be done before installing the new reset
vector ("ARM: shmobile: rcar-gen2: Add watchdog support"), too,
else onlining CPU0 would fail once the watchdog has timed out.
