watchdog: iTCO_wdt: Report error if timeout configuration fails

The driver probes with the invalid timeout value when
'iTCO_wdt_set_timeout()' fails, as its return value is not checked. In
this case, when executing "wdctl", we may get:

Device:        /dev/watchdog0
Timeout:       30 seconds
Timeleft:      613 seconds

The timeout value is the value of "heartbeat" or "WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT", and
the timeleft value is calculated from the register value we actually read
(0xffff) by masking with 0x3ff and converting ticks to seconds (* 6 / 10).

Add error handling to return the failure code if 'iTCO_wdt_set_timeout()'
fails, ensuring the driver probe fails and prevents invalid operation.
