For Intel SKL platform the ME device can inform the host via
asynchronous notification that the watchdog feature was activated on the
device. The activation doesn't require reboot.
In that case the driver register the watchdog device with the kernel.


Can the watchdog device also be disabled on the fly ?

Doesn't that mean, though, that the RX event is not registered either,
even if it is supported ? If so, should you retry and register only
MEI_CL_EVENT_RX ?

Thanks,
