watchdog: change watchdog_need_worker logic 

If the driver indicates that the watchdog is running, the framework
should feed it until userspace opens the device, regardless of whether
the driver has set max_hw_heartbeat_ms.

This patch only affects the case where wdd->max_hw_heartbeat_ms is
zero, wdd->timeout is non-zero, the watchdog is not active and the
hardware device is running (*):

- If wdd->timeout is zero, watchdog_need_worker() returns false both
before and after this patch, and watchdog_next_keepalive() is not
called.

- If watchdog_active(wdd), the return value from watchdog_need_worker
is also the same as before (namely, hm && t > hm). Hence in that case,
watchdog_next_keepalive() is only called if hm == max_hw_heartbeat_ms
is non-zero, so the change to min_not_zero there is a no-op.

- If the watchdog is not active and the device is not running, we
return false from watchdog_need_worker just as before.

That leaves the watchdog_hw_running(wdd) && !watchdog_active(wdd) &&
wdd->timeout case. Again, it's easy to see that if
wdd->max_hw_heartbeat_ms is non-zero, we return true from
watchdog_need_worker with and without this patch, and the logic in
watchdog_next_keepalive is unchanged. Finally, if
wdd->max_hw_heartbeat_ms is 0, we used to end up in the
cancel_delayed_work branch, whereas with this patch we end up
scheduling a ping timeout_ms/2 from now.

(*) This should imply that no current kernel drivers are affected,
since the only drivers which explicitly set WDOG_HW_RUNNING are
imx2_wdt.c and dw_wdt.c, both of which also provide a non-zero value
for max_hw_heartbeat_ms. The watchdog core also sets WDOG_HW_RUNNING,
but only when the driver doesn't provide ->stop, in which case it
must, according to Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-kernel-api.txt, set
max_hw_heartbeat_ms.
