116II. Watchdog support
117
118	For security reasons, the at91 watchdog is running at boot time and,
119	if deactivated, cannot be used anymore.
120	If you want to use the watchdog, you will need to keep it running in
121	your code (make sure not to disable it in AT91Bootstrap for instance).
122
123	In the U-Boot configuration, the AT91 watchdog support is enabled using
124	the CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG options.
