The optional SMCWD_GET_TIMELEFT command can be used to detect if
the watchdog has already been started.
See the implementation in OP-TEE secure OS [1].
At probe time, check if the watchdog is already started and then
set WDOG_HW_RUNNING in the watchdog status. This will cause the
watchdog framework to ping the watchdog until a userspace watchdog
daemon takes over the control.
