hi Guenter Roeck
why still not merged to upstream ?
I had asked you to provide an updated description, without the "personal
opinion" part which does not belong into a commit log. The other two
patches wait for Wim to send them upstream.
ok i have send this patch with new description again

Remove watchdog_stop_on_reboot()

Meson platform still have some hardware drivers problems for some
configurations which can freeze device on shutdown/reboot stage and i
think better to have reboot warranty by default.

I feel that it is important to keep the watchdog running during the
reboot sequence, in the event that an abnormal driver freezes the reboot
process.

This is my personal opinion and I hope the driver authors will agree
with my proposal, or just ignore this commit if not.
