Hi Maxime,

I'm just supposing that A31 is the version 1.0 of the IP, A64 is the
version 1.1 and H6 is 1.2.
And if an issue is found for A64 there is more chance that we will
have to fix it also for H6.
But bindings the driver with :
"allwinner,sun50i-h6-wdt","allwinner,sun50i-a31-wdt" is also fine for
me.

Clement
