Well, my problem is, that CONFIG_SYS_WDTC_WDMR_VAL is used to program the internal watchdog. But this watchdog can only be programmed once until a reset occurs. So there is no possibility for linux to reprogram it. So, if CONFIG_SYS_WDTC_WDMR_VAL is not defined and the watchdog is not programed using my patch, the watchdog still runs with default settings (timeout of 16s). So a user may choose to trigger the watchdog from u-boot (define CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG) or let it run silently. To summarize, CONFIG_SYS_WDTC_WDMR_VAL is not needed to use CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG.
