In general I like the idea of the watchdog driver to be enabled by
default on the defconfig. This is the sane thing to do in a lot of
situation.

Enabling it however complicates some use cases, attaching a debugger, or
maybe we have a situation in which the OS is currently not keeping the
WD alive, therefore you would be potentially in trouble if you would
update the bootloader.

I am not familiar with the general colibri t30 user base to be enough
confident this change will be fine, so this is the reason I am a little
hesitant to change for such an old product.
 
With that said, I am ok to change it, no strong arguments against.

Francesco
