Dann recently reported that his ThunderX machine failed to boot since

It turned out to be caused by a mix of broken firmware and a buggy
GTDT watchdog driver. Both have forever been buggy, but the above
commit revealed that the error handling path of the driver was
probably the worse part of it all.

Anyway, this short series has two goals:
- handle broken firmware in a less broken way
- make sure that the route cause of the problem can be identified
   quickly

Tested on Kunpeng920 ARM64 server, didn't any issue after applying
this patch set,
