watchdog: sp5100_tco.c: Check if firmware has set correct value in tcobase.
Stefano found SP5100 TCO watchdog driver using wrong address.
[ 9.148536] SP5100 TCO timer: SP5100 TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v0.01
[ 9.148628] DEBUG __ioremap_caller WARNING address=b8fe00 size=8 valid=1 reserved=1
and e820 said that range is RAM.
