I'm quite certainly missing something completely obvious here, but how
can you get the WS1 interrupt*after*  raising a panic? Aren't all
interrupts disabled and the system fully halted once you get a panic(),
especially when raised from an interrupt handler? If that's the case,
how can the system continue to do things, such as receiving the WS1
interrupt and resetting ?

Typically, WS1 is not an interrupt.  Instead, it's a hard system-level 
reset.

Ah, right, true. I missed that aspect because on my HW, triggering a
system-level reset on WS1 is optional. I can actually get an interrupt
on both WS0 and WS1, and no reset at all.

But a normal configuration indeed involves having the WS1 event
configured in HW to be a system-level reset.

So, OK, it makes sense. Thanks for the clarification!
