SBSA is for ARMv8-A based (64-bit) servers, no need to depends on ARM, and why we depends on COMPILE_TEST?
I think it's a reasonable assumption that someone will sooner or later put that hardware into an ARM32 machine, or run a 32-bit kernel on a chip that has it.
While SBSA requires this watchdog device, nothing prevents SoC manufacturers from using the same design in something that is not a server.
