I understand that the watchdog driver has been accepted and that as things currently stand if it is enabled in the build it will be enabled in DT and a crash will result.

I understand that the watchdog driver has been accepted and that as things currently stand if it is enabled in the build it will be enabled in DT and a crash will result. From my POV that is a regression so I have decided to adopt the alternate plan proposed by Geert above: in short drop DT patches (to avoid enabling broken driver) and enqueue mach-shmobile patches (which don't make things any worse.
