This would be correct if the watchdog core would ever call this function,
which it could only do if it was specified in mpc8xxx_wdt_ops, which it isn't.
As written, mpc8xxx_wdt_ping is only called from mpc8xxx_wdt_timer_ping.

If this is not intentional, ie if mpc8xxx_wdt_ping is supposed to be called
from the infrastructure, something else is wrong.
