[PATCH] softdog: Add options 'soft_reboot_target' and 'soft_active_on_boot'

[Woody Lin <woodylin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Add module parameters 'soft_reboot_target' and 'soft_active_on_boot' for
customizing softdog configuration; config reboot target by assigning
soft_reboot_target, and set soft_active_on_boot to start up softdog
timer at module initialization stage.
