The i.MX watchdog cannot be disabled by softwrae once it has been

enabled. This means that it can't be stopped before suspend.

For systems that enter low power mode this is fine, as the watchdog will
be automatically stopped by hardwrae in low power mode. Not all i.MX

s/hardwrae/hardware/

platforms support low power mode in the mainline kernel. For example the
i.MX7D does not enter low power mode and so will be rebooted 2 minutes
after entering freeze or mem sleep states.

I don't think "mem" adds any value here. Just make it sleep states.


This patch introduces a device tree property "fsl,ping-during-suspend"
that can be used to enable ping on suspend support for these systems.

I don't see the purpose of this variable. Unless I am missing something is is set
but never used.

This is ok as long as there is only a single chip requiring this change.
If there are more, the 'data' field in struct of_device_id should be used
instead.
