Aspeed watchdog uses counting down logic, so the value set to register
should be the value of subtracting pretimeout from total timeout.

It is unusual to use a register value here and not the configured timeout
value. I would have assumed that pretimeout is compared against wdt->timout,
not against the register value, and that the multiplication with WDT_RATE_1MHZ
is done after validation. This needs an explanation.

On top of that, you'll also need to explain why watchdog_pretimeout_invalid()
and with it the validation in watchdog_set_pretimeout() does not work for this
watchdog and why this extra validation is necessary.

+1 as well.

Further, the logic looks broken regardless for the AST2400 where
there's no pretimeout support. aspeed_wdt_set_pretimeout() should error
out if wdt->cfg->irq_mask is 0.


It should not register as supporting pretimeout in the first place.
