watchdog?

Please just move the #endif for the #if 0 up instead of putting a C++

Please leave this wrapped in CONFIG_BOOKE_WDT.  I don't agree with
unconditionally enabling this for every 405 chip out there.

Pretty sure you meant || here?  Thought if you just enable the existing
config option, I don't think you'd need to edit this file at all.
