Hi Michal,

Sure you want to set this to always true instead of using WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT ?
I have checked it and
option CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT - Disable watchdog shutdown on close

with this part in the header

100 #ifdef CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
101 #define WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT               1
102 #define WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT_INIT_STATUS   (1 << WDOG_NO_WAY_OUT)
103 #else
104 #define WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT               0
105 #define WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT_INIT_STATUS   0
106 #endif

enable once is hardware option and it means when this option is setup in
hw you can't stop watchdog. That's why I think that setting up true
instead of WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT is correct.

Thanks,
Michal
