I would prefer to find a way to generalize that. I can see multiple ways to do that: * Turn the "marvell,armada-370-xp-system-controller" device into a "syscon" device that can be used through regmap from other parts of the kernel. * Move arch/arm/mach-mvebu/system-controller.c into drivers/soc (we don't have this directory yet, but have discussed it in the past) to export soc-specific functions from there. * Move all of the system-controller implementation into the wdt driver and require that this driver be enabled in order to do regular system reset. The system-controller can register itself as a reboot hook, so you can remove the ".restart = mvebu_restart" part from mach-mvebu.
