I don't agree with this. The GTDT should be parsed even if there's no

So what's the point of parse GTDT and alloc memories for it if there
is no watchdog driver compiled for the kernel?
I don't think it's normal policy to generate a platform only if one
specific driver is enabled.

I think that actually can work, but it's not a good reason by itself.
OK, that's good point. but what I proposed is some hint to which driver
will use the data prepared in this file, we can easily understand it
in this patchset, but if just review the code in this fiel, I think
people will be confused without detail comments.
All anyone needs to is
git grep "sbsa-gwdt"
And you'll find the driver.
