Probably lacking of the context, I failed to see why the checks are
equivalent.  Could you provide more information?

Not exactly equivalent; this is a fix.

Context: If max_hw_heartbeat_ms is provided, the configured maximum timeout
is not limited by it. The limit check in this driver therefore doesn't make
much sense. Similar, the watchdog core ensures that minimum timeout limits
are met if min_hw_heartbeat_ms is set. Using watchdog_timeout_invalid()
makes more sense because it takes this into account.
