watchdog: Add TCO support for nVidia chipsets

This driver adds support for /dev/watchdog for boards using either the MCP51 or
MCP55 chipsets.  These are also known as the nForce 430 and nForce 550.  This
driver is likely to work on other chipsets as well, though those are the only
two that have been tested.

+	  Hardware driver for the TCO timer built into the nVidia Hub family

+	  "heartbeat" parameter.
+
+	  On some motherboards the driver may fail to reset the chipset's
+	  NO_REBOOT flag which prevents the watchdog from rebooting the
+	  machine. If this is the case you will get a kernel message like
+	  "failed to reset NO_REBOOT flag, reboot disabled by hardware".
