Suspend routine disables wdog clk. Nevertheless, the watchdog subsystem is not aware of that and can still try to ping wdog through watchdog_ping_work. In order to prevent such condition and therefore prevent from system hang (caused by the wdog register access issued while the wdog clock is disabled) take advantage of watchdog_dev_suspend/resume routines which will take care of watchdog ping worker cancel and restore. Additionally remove hw ping from suspend/resume since it will be issued by watchdog_dev_suspend/resume routines.
