watchdog: f71808e_wdt: Fix magic close handling
[ Upstream commit 7bd3e7b743956afbec30fb525bc3c5e22e3d475c ]
Watchdog close is "expected" when any byte is 'V' not just the last one.
Writing "V" to the device fails because the last byte is the end of string.
$ echo V > /dev/watchdog
f71808e_wdt: Unexpected close, not stopping watchdog!
