I'd like to question the addition of yet another debug string in the
kernel that will most likely never be printed. Do you really think it is
necessary?

Your patch does not change the fact that the watchdog timer is first
started after loading a
valid value into WD_VAL register. This driver can be used perfectly
fine without enabling the
watchdog feature from userspace. If someone chooses to reboot without
stopping the watchdog
it is of course expected to still run on next boot (e.g. device probe).

I do not agree that this should be the default setting as
WDOG_HW_RUNNING bit causes
watchdog core to kick watchdog until userland takes over, e.g. you
have just broken the
chain-of-monitoring in the embedded Linux device:
Hardware watchdog -> systemd -> daemon(s) / application(s)
At this point in time you only know that u-boot / barebox can load and
start the kernel with
a device tree blob.
What if mounting of rootfs fails?
What if systemd fails to start?
When doing a reboot due to ex. firmware upgrade, systemd will keep
kicking the watchdog
until the last sec before restart handler is called and the hardware
watchdog should not be
touched before systemd is in control of the system again.

This should not be decided on driver level. The intended means to enforce
an initial timeout would be to set CONFIG_WATCHDOG_OPEN_TIMEOUT, or to use
the open_timeout kernel parameter.

To clarify: If WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED is disabled, the watchdog core
does not ping the watchdog on its own, and Bruno's argument does not apply
in the first place.

Thanks for clarifying.
When reading the WDOG_HW_RUNNING bit description in kernel api [1]
documentation around line 247 you don't get the impression that the behavior
can be modified by 2 Kconfig options and 1 runtime option. Maybe add an
additional note?
I am overall okay with the change, but I have a few extra comments.
If the dev_err message is kept there is a typo in register name: wd_val.
The variable name wdd_timeout is a bit misleading as the register does not
contain the initial timeout value but a countdown value, ex. wdd_value.

That is probably because the two configuration options were added later
and the documentation was not updated. Patches welcome.

Linux should handle when the pcf2127 watchdog feature is enabled by the
bootloader. This is done by checking the watchdog timer value during
init, and set the WDOG_HW_RUNNING flag if the value differs from zero.

Change since v2:
* remove logging in case of error
Change since v1:
* remove setting of WDOG_HW_RUNNING in pcf2127_wdt_start()

You could have kept Guenter's ack.
