I tested and can confirm WOVFE was be disable by command 
rwdt_write(priv, priv->cks, RWTCSRA);
I don't understand why this bit is turned off but the watchdog can still reset, but 
according to the document it will be 1.

I have added the interrupt node to dtsi and created the interrupt handler to successfully handle the Secure watchdog Gen2, but this is not documented.  With Gen 3, I am also thinking whether it is necessary or not.  Thank you!!!
With Gen3, after reset by WDT, then restart will have an interrupt when probe timer(), but we can do this no reset, after this,  timer operate normally. 
Problaly this patch should RFC

Thank you for your helps!!!
