-* Freescale i.MX System Controller Watchdog
-
-i.MX system controller watchdog is for i.MX SoCs with system controller inside,
-the watchdog is managed by system controller, users can ONLY communicate with
-system controller from secure mode for watchdog operations, so Linux i.MX system
-controller watchdog driver will call ARM SMC API and trap into ARM-Trusted-Firmware
-for watchdog operations, ARM-Trusted-Firmware is running at secure EL3 mode and
-it will request system controller to execute the watchdog operation passed from
-Linux kernel.
