Hi Krzysztof,

Thank you for the review.

Ok, I'll drop the para. There isnt any ABI breakage as the driver
patch [0] will skip supporting watchdog bootstatus if this property is
not present.

I should have mentioned this in my commit message (my bad). The
renesas,wdt.yaml binding file is being used for all the SoCs
currently. To avoid any conflicts by just having vendor specific
property I added SoC name to the preoperty.

@Geert/Wolfram - Maybe we need to split the binding on per SoC bases?

This patch already disallows `renesas,r9a09g057-syscon-wdt-errorrst`
for the rest of the SoCs and only allows for RZ/V2H(P) SoC or am I
missing something?

As mentioned above we won't break ABI, this required flag is for future changes.
