A reboot notifier, which stops the WDT by calling the stop hook without any check, would be registered when we set WDOG_STOP_ON_REBOOT flag. Howerer we allow the WDT driver to omit the stop hook since commit "d0684c8a" ("watchdog: Make stop function optional") and provide a module parameter for user that controls the WDOG_STOP_ON_REBOOT flag in commit 9232c806 ("watchdog: Add stop_on_reboot parameter to control reboot policy"). Together that commits make user potential to insert a watchdog driver that don't provide a stop hook but with the stop_on_reboot parameter set, then dereferencing of null pointer occurs on system reboot. Check the stop hook before registering the reboot notifier to fix the issue.
