I wonder why you are so sure "that SOC won't have an SBSA watchdog in it." any documentation ? Sorry, I am not a chip design engineer, I can't see why 32-bit ARM won't have an SBSA watchdog in it.
Because there's no market for it. I'm not talking about what's theoretically possible. I'm only talking about what makes sense and what will actually happen. And I'm quite certain that we will never see an actual 32-bit ARM SOC with an SBSA watchdog device in it.
Why are you quite certain? any info you can kindly share here?
Therefore, it makes no sense to complicated the code so that we can support an SOC that will never exist.
yes, that is a good reason!
So can we PLEASE stop talking about 32-bit ARM support?
why? we are just trying to figure out: Do we need to add ARM in "depends on" for SBSA watchdog driver?
If some one suggests this, we need to figure out.
