watchdog: i6300esb: use the watchdog subsystem
Change the i6300esb driver to use the watchdog subsystem instead of the legacy watchdog API. This is mainly just getting rid of the "write" and "ioctl" methods and part of the watchdog control logic (which are all implemented by the watchdog subsystem). Even though the watchdog subsystem supports registering and handling multiple watchdog devices at the same time, the i6300esb driver still has a limitation of only one i6300esb device due to some global variable usage that comes from the original design. However, the driver can now coexist with other watchdog devices (supported by different drivers).
