Hi Simon,
Thanks for review.

OK. [I assume the rationale is: don't add .text which will most likely
never be used, but allow the debug statements to be easily turned on
per-TU if one should ever need it.]

And have the initr sequence stop completely instead of trying to limp
along? Why? Note that I touched upon this in the commit message: The
existing code doesn't pass on an error from uclass_get_device*() [which
would most likely come from an underlying probe call], and returns 0
regardless from initr_watchdog(). I see no point changing that.

I'd assume device_probe() would print an error message. If not, sure, I
can add some [log_debug?] message.

Why? They've all been probed in initr_watchdog(). And the guts of
WATHCDOG_RESET(), which can be and is called from everywhere, is
certainly not the place to do anything other than actually pinging the
watchdog devices.

Perhaps, but this is just existing code I've moved around.

Ditto.

Eh, yes, of course I could do this in the loop in initr_watchdog() where
I probe all watchdog devices, but the end result is exactly the same,
and it seemed that this was a perfect fit for DM since it provided this
post_probe hook. It's a no-op if CONFIG_WATCHDOG_AUTOSTART isn't set,
and if it is, that precisely means the developer wanted to start
handling the device(s) ASAP.

I agree in general, but watchdog devices are a bit special compared to
some random USB controller or LCD display or spi master - those devices
generally don't do anything unless asked to by the CPU, while a watchdog
device is the other way around, it does its thing _unless_ the CPU asks
it not to (often enough). Which in turn, I suppose, is the whole reason
wdt-uclass has its own hook into the initr sequence - one needs to probe
and possibly start handling the watchdog(s) ASAP.
BTW, next on my agenda is hooking in even earlier so the few boards that
use INIT_FUNC_WATCHDOG_INIT/INIT_FUNC_WATCHDOG_RESET can just use DM and
be done with it - having those INIT_FUNC_WATCHDOG_RESET in completely
random places in init_sequence_f[] is a bit silly.

Ditto, existing code moved around.
Thanks,
Rasmus
