Users report about the unexpected behavior for setting timeouts above
15 sec on Raspberry Pi. According to watchdog-api.rst the ioctl
WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT shouldn't fail because of hardware limitations.
But looking at the code shows that max_timeout based on the
register value PM_WDOG_TIME_SET, which is the maximum.
Since 664a39236e71 ("watchdog: Introduce hardware maximum heartbeat
in watchdog core") the watchdog core is able to handle this problem.
This fix has been tested with watchdog-test from selftests.
