media: cedrus: Fix watchdog race condition
The watchdog needs to be scheduled before we trigger the decode operation, otherwise there is a risk that the decoder IRQ will be called before we have schedule the watchdog. As a side effect, the watchdog would never be cancelled and its function would be called at an inappropriate time. This was observed while running Fluster with GStreamer as a backend. Some programming error would cause the decoder IRQ to be call very quickly after the trigger. Later calls into the driver would deadlock due to the unbalanced state.
