watchdog: msc313e: Enable clock before accessing hardware registers

msc313e_wdt_probe() reads from hardware registers without ensuring the
required clock is enabled.  Furthermore, if the bootloader leaves the
watchdog running, msc313e_wdt_probe() sets WDOG_HW_RUNNING without
increasing the clock's reference count.

While the clock is currently supplied as a fixed clock by the device
tree (`xtal_div2` in arch/arm/boot/dts/sigmastar/mstar-v7.dtsi) which
masks the physical issue, this still violates the API usage.

Call clk_prepare_enable() before reading WDT registers.  If the WDT is
running, leave the clock enabled so the CCF reference counter is
balanced.
