Sorry, I will try to explain the behavior more clearly.

Setting STAUPD_PRD which means pmic wrap will get the status from PMIC
every 98.5us. Each time watchdog saw the STAUPD update, the interrupt
won't be trigger.

STAUPD_PRD was not the timer to trigger interrupt, I think what you said
was WDT_UNIT.

if STAUPD_TRIG was set, STAUPD_PRD=5 => STAUPD will trigger signal to
get the status from PMIC every 98.5us => the interrupt will not trigger,
because STAUPD_PRD working.
 
if STAUPD_TRIG was set, STAUPD_PRD=0 => STAUPD disable.=> the interrupt
will trigger by watchdog because STAUPD won't trigger the signal.

Yes. Maybe to clear the STAUPD_TRIG bit of WDT_SRC_EN was better to fix
the problem.
