Well, to me it makes the code more clear, so I'd prefer to keep it.

I'll make it configurable through config.h, and a u8. However, I think
watchdog_timeout is a more descriptive name here.

I can do that, but CNTMR_VAL_REG is actually defined higher up in the
file as
#define CNTMR_VAL_REG(tmrnum) &kwtmr_regs->tmr[tmrnum].val
and used for the regular timer support. I'm not sure I like that, but
at least the file should be internally consistent.

But then it's unconditionally turned on as soon as the first
WATCHDOG_RESET() is called, which might not be what you want.
In the long run, we should probably add command line support for
enabling the watchdog (some might want to do it just before starting
Linux for example).
