Thanks. I suspect u-boot WDT behaviour should be different from Linux.
Linux sets TCR_WIE bit to enable watchdog interrupt,  u-boot should not
do this and just reset the CPU on first time-out. The TCR values are 
identical
in u-boot and linux, except for TCR_WIE and TCR_DIE bits that are set 
in linux.

Except not setting TCI_WIE bit and setting WRC to 10b, is there 
anything else
that should be done to cause reset of first time-out ?

Felix.
