4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit e990e12741877e9bfac402ca468f4007a75f6e2a ] The datasheet says we must stop the timer before changing the clock divider. This can happen when the restart handler is called while the watchdog is running.
