---------------------

On the mpc5200 and 5200b, GPT0 has a watchdog timer function.  If the board

design supports the internal wdt, then the device node for GPT0 should

include the empty property 'fsl,has-wdt'.

include the empty property 'fsl,has-wdt'.  Note that this does not activate

the watchdog.  The timer will function as a GPT if the timer api is used, and

it will function as watchdog if the watchdog device is used.  The watchdog

mode has priority over the gpt mode, i.e. if the watchdog is activated, any

gpt api call to this timer will fail with -EBUSY.



If you add the property

	fsl,wdt-on-boot = <n>;

GPT0 will be marked as in-use watchdog, i.e. blocking every gpt access to it.

If n>0, the watchdog is started with a timeout of n seconds.  If n=0, the

configuration of the watchdog is not touched.  This is useful in two cases:

- just mark GPT0 as watchdog, blocking gpt accesses, and configure it later;

- do not touch a configuration assigned by the boot loader which supervises

  the boot process itself.



The watchdog will respect the CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT option.



An mpc5200-gpt can be used as a single line GPIO controller.  To do so,

add the following properties to the gpt node:
