Since the interrupt is optional, the driver should also not fail to load
if no interrupt is assigned to it in the first place.
Yeah. I've been thinking about it and I agree now. I'll erase the handler.

On a separate note, there was a comment stating that the da9062 watchdog
is identical to the da9063 watchdog. If so, why can't you just use the da9063
watchdog driver ?
Well, the short answer to this is, it's not the same. I was just in the process of
replying to that other thread. The OnKey and RTC are functionally similar, so I
am going to look at integrating the two drivers in some future patch sets, but
the watchdog is definitely not based upon DA9063.
I did mention this in a previous thread:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/6/505
Sure, what I understand is that the base functionality is the same and
even the registers are compatible. Are you sure the new features can't
be added to the da9063 and called conditionally? Plenty of drivers are
doing that.
