96II. Watchdog support
97
98	For security reasons, the at91 watchdog is running at boot time and,
99	if deactivated, cannot be used anymore.
100	If you want to use the watchdog, you will need to keep it running in
101	your code (make sure not to disable it in AT91Bootstrap for instance).
102
103	In the U-Boot configuration, the AT91 watchdog support is enabled using
104	the CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG options.
