From: Surendra Singh Chouhan <kr494167@gmail.com>

atcwdt_get_int_timer_type() returned TMR_UNKNOWN (enum value 3) when
CTRL_WDT_EN was set in the control register.

Because atcwdt_probe() checks "ret = atcwdt_get_int_timer_type(drv_data);
if (ret) return ret;", returning TMR_UNKNOWN caused probe() to return 3
instead of a valid negative error code.

Fix this by setting drv_data->int_timer_type to TMR_UNKNOWN and returning
-EBUSY via dev_err_probe() when the watchdog is already enabled.
