The series mainly fixes issues reported by Sashiko in [1][2][3].

Patch 1 fixes a report in [1]:
- "[High] Missing platform_set_drvdata() or dev_set_drvdata() in the
  probe function leads to a guaranteed NULL pointer dereference during
  suspend/resume operations."

Patch 2 fixes reports in both [2][3]:
- "[High] Potential division by zero during `max_timeout` calculation."
- "[High] Potential division by zero if clk_get_rate() returns 0."

Patch 3 fixes reports in both [2][3]:
- "Clock reference count leak and unintended hardware activation in
  `msc313e_wdt_settimeout`."
- "[High] Repeatedly setting the watchdog timeout leaks clock prepare
  and enable references, potentially leading to refcount overflow."

Patch 4 fixes a report in [1]:
- "[High] The driver accesses hardware registers without ensuring the
  required clock is enabled, which can lead to a synchronous bus fault."
It also fixes a further report in [3]:
- "[Medium] Clock reference count is leaked on the probe error path if
  watchdog registration fails."

Patch 5 fixes reports in both [2][3]:
- "[High] Hardware watchdog is not properly stopped during system
  suspend if it was started by the bootloader but not opened by
  userspace."
- "[High] System will unexpectedly reset during suspend if the hardware
  watchdog is running but was never opened by userspace."

Patch 6 fixes an undefined behavior while I was reviewing the code.

Patch 7 fixes a report from a local AI tool.  If WDT was running at
boot, the timeout value could be inconsistent with what the driver has.
Sync the value.

Patch 8 fixes a report in [2]:
- "[High] The resume callback ignores the return value of
  msc313e_wdt_start()."

Patch 9 fixes a report in [2]:
- "[Low] Struct initialization uses commas instead of semicolons."

Patch 1 seems to be applied[4].  But the tree isn't available yet.  The
series still bases on current watchdog-next branch.
