It's quite possible I'm just missing something, but I don't see it.  If
the uclass is totally broken, can you make a suggestion on fixing it?  I
can see a common case being "lets turn off the watchdog now" and not
want a wdt until the full OS, but we must also fully support "U-Boot has
and pets the Watchdog".

If it looks like some nightmare to fix the DM uclass, I suppose, but, is
it really that bad off atm?
