Hi Alan,

If a freescale watchdog device node is present, reset the watchdog
while waiting for serial input.

Why ? We normally rely on user space for watchdog management as only the
fact user space is behaving really proves a box is happy ?

This is in the boot wrapper code, not in the linux kernel.

Ok now that makes sense, thanks

So I'll ask, what serial input are you waiting for from the boot wrapper?
