Hi Marek and Andrew

As you pointed out, it is only the force WD bit that is writeable and
the others are read-only. Just needed to clarify that the patch is only
meant to solve clearing the force WD event bit (bit 0).
I will clarify this in the commit as well.

The errata is allegedly planned to be documented in their next version
of release notes.

Thank you for reviewing!

Best regards
