This situation is already handled by the driver. Actually, I don't even
know what will happen, since the watchdog core will continue to ping
the watchdog after close, and it won't be possible to unload the driver
if the watchdog is running.

I don't think a warning is warranted in this case. We did not need one before,
we should not need one now.
