Introduce new device-tree property "fsl,suspend-in-wait" which suspends
watchdog in WAIT mode. This is done by setting WDW bit in WCR
(Watchdog Control Register) Watchdog operation is restored after exiting

'.' after ')' missing ?

WAIT mode as expected. WAIT mode coresponds with Linux's

s/coresponds/corresponds/

Will fix this in v3, thank you.

"Suspend-To-Idle".

Changes in v2:
  - validate the property with compatible string, as this functionality
    is not supported by all devices.

Unnecessary; false by default. Also, this should fail and return -EINVAL.
Devicetree files should be correct, and warning messages tend to be ignored.

Unnecessary.

I would suggest to replace the above code with something like

    if (of_property_read_bool(dev->of_node, "fsl,suspend-in-wait")) {
        if (!of_device_compatible_match(dev->of_node, wdw_boards)) {

            return -EINVAL;
        }
        wdev->sleep_wait = true;
    }

OK, this look cleaner, will use this, thanks.

       * The i.MX7D doesn't support low power mode, so we need to ping the watchdog

I still wonder how that interacts with fsl,suspend-in-wait, but since we have a
property for that we can leave that for someone else to find out. Maybe add a
comment explaining that interaction with "fsl,suspend-in-wait" is unknown.
I'm assuming that i.MX7D doesn't enter any of low-power modes including WAIT mode. If this is the case the watchdog wouldn't get disabled.

Anyway, I will add a short comment regarding the unknown behaviour of this property with i.MX7D device.
