When we talked about this before I pointed out that sequence here is
important:

- Disable WDT
- Clear bridge
- Enable WDT

Looking at this patch in isolation it looks to me like the clear
bridge lines should be replaced with a request_irq (as that does the
clear) - is the request_irq in the wrong spot?
