patch against linuxppc_2_4_devel: ppc405_wdt.c needs to be fixed

[Matthias Fuchs]

Hi Kenneth,

it seems that the 405 watchdog does not really work. It's something like a soft-watchdog
actually. I did not test it in a loop with irqs off.

At least my patch corrected the ioctls and I get a working software watchdog.
I wonder what happened to the 405 hardware watchdog support.
