This does not work at the moment.

The suspend function calls

imx2_wdt_set_timeout(wdog, IMX2_WDT_MAX_TIME);

and resume reverts this by calling

imx2_wdt_set_timeout(wdog, wdog->timeout);

However, imx2_wdt_set_timeout() updates wdog->timeout. Therefore,
wdog->timeout is set to IMX2_WDT_MAX_TIME when we enter the resume
function.

Fix this by setting wdog->timeout to the previous value at the end of
the suspend function. This manual update makes wdog->timeout different
from the actual setting in the hardware. This should be ok in our case
as kernel code is not running while we're suspended.

That works, though it is a bit hackish. Better would be to have a function
such as _imx2_wdt_set_timeout() which doesn't actually update wdt->timeout
and could be called from all the other places doing the same.
Separate patch, maybe.
