Hi All,

This patch series converts the WDTDCR register access from raw
readl/writel variants over to the regmap framework using
devm_regmap_init_mmio(). This conversion serves as a preparatory
refactoring step. It allows the driver to subsequently support
syscon-based system controllers natively by passing along alternative
regmap handles without forcing messy architectural branching at runtime.


I do not see the issues reported by Sashiko addressed, nor feedback
explaining to me why the reported issues do not apply and/or are false
positives.
