The watchdog driver calls jz4740_timer_enable_watchdog and
jz4740_timer_disable_watchdog which defined in
arch/mips/jz4740/timer.c. It accesses registers iomapped by timer
code. Declaring register size as 0x10 does not show the real picture.
Better use register size as 0x100 and let timer, wdt, pwm drivers to
share them.

Code from one of your branches
(https://github.com/OpenDingux/linux/blob/for-upstream-clocksource/arch/mips/boot/dts/ingenic/jz4740.dtsi)
does it. Can you prepare a patch series and send it?
I have a patch set that moves timer code out of arch/mips/jz4740/ and
does a similar thing for watchdog and pwm. As your new timer driver is
better than the existing one I have not sent my patches yet. I would
like to see it getting mainlined as it paves way for removing most of
code in arch/mips/jz4740.
