+II. Watchdog support
+
+ For security reasons, the at91 watchdog is running at boot time and,
+ if deactivated, cannot be used anymore.
+ If you want to use the watchdog, you will need to keep it running in
+ your code (make sure not to disable it in AT91Bootstrap for instance).
+
+ In the U-Boot configuration, the AT91 watchdog support is enabled using
+ the CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG options.
