The TS-72xx/73xx boards have a CPLD watchdog which is configured to
reset the board after 8 seconds, if the kernel is large enough that this
takes about this time to decompress the kernel, we will encounter a
spurious reboot.

so once it reaches Kernel proper, that dog is being killed, right ?

iirc, TI AM335x's & AM43x's ROM code too leaves the on-chip watchdog
enabled & the bootloader disables it (else once it boots to prompt, it
reboots always unless watchdog driver [if present] takes care of it),
Lokesh, right ?

Yes, that's right. Watchdog is disabled in U-Boot.

Thanks and regards,
Lokesh
