watchdog: sp5100_tco: Immediately trigger upon starting.
The watchdog countdown is supposed to begin when the device file is opened. Instead, it would begin countdown upon the first write to or close of the device file. Now, the ping operation is called within the start operation which ensures the countdown begins. From experimenation, it does not appear possible to do this with a single write including both the start bit and the trigger bit. So, it is done as two distinct writes.
