Imagine I have boot.default="bootchooser recovery". Both bootchooser
slots fail, so I boot the recovery slot, but with your patch
applied, the watchdog wouldn't be enabled, no?

The da9063 suffers from the same problem and this was instead addressed
by dropping requests that come in too fast. See
cbfdbf38c190 ("mfd: da9063: fix watchdog ping execution")
