    Add a simple ARM SP805 watchdog driver · 38041973

    Based on SP805 Programmer's model (ARM DDI 0270B). This driver
    provides three public APIs:
    
        void sp805_start(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
        void sp805_stop(uintptr_t base);
        void sp805_refresh(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
    
    Upon start, the watchdog starts counting down from the number of
    ticks specified. When the count reaches 0 an interrupt is triggered.
    The watchdog restarts counting down from the number of ticks
    specified. If the count reaches 0 again, the system is reset. A
    mechanism to handle the interrupt has not been implemented. Instead,
    the API to refresh the watchdog should be used instead to prevent a
    system reset.
