[U-Boot] [PATCH] aspeed/watchdog: Correct timeout value

The driver was using milliseconds and programming it into a register
which takes ticks of the watchdog clock, which runs at 1MHz. This meant
we were off by 1000 with the desired value.

When 06985289d452 ("watchdog: Implement generic watchdog_reset()
version") was added the aspeed board would leave the watchdog running,
causing it to bite before u-boot was done.

Discovered by booting in qemu:

  $ qemu-system-arm -M ast2500-evb -drive file=test.img,format=raw,if=mtd -nographic -no-reboot -d cpu_reset

  U-Boot 2019.07-rc3-00091-g2253e40caef5 (Jun 06 2019 - 16:53:23 +0930)

  Model: Aspeed BMC
  DRAM:  496 MiB
  WDT:   Started with servicing (60s timeout)
  MMC:   
  In:    serial at 1e784000
  Out:   serial at 1e784000
  Err:   serial at 1e784000
  Watchdog timer expired.
