Because there's no market for it.  I'm not talking about what's
theoretically possible.  I'm only talking about what makes sense and what
will actually happen.  And I'm quite certain that we will never see an
actual 32-bit ARM SOC with an SBSA watchdog device in it.
Why are you quite certain? any info you can kindly share here?
I used to work for a company called Calxeda that tried to sell a 32-bit 
ARM Server SOC.  Calxeda went out of business because no one would buy 
it, and that was two years ago.

So can we PLEASE stop talking about 32-bit ARM support?
why? we are just trying to figure out:
Do we need to add ARM in "depends on" for SBSA watchdog driver?

If some one suggests this, we need to figure out.
We do not need to add "depends on ARM" in the Kconfig for the SBSA 
watchdog driver.
