watchdog: rc32434_wdt: fix ioctl error handling

Calling return copy_to_user(...) in an ioctl will not do the right thing
if there's a pagefault: copy_to_user returns the number of bytes not
copied in this case.

Fix up watchdog/rc32434_wdt to do
	return copy_to_user(...)) ?  -EFAULT : 0;

instead.
