Changes in v3:
- Remove one if checking and use variable directly

Looks good.

Another comment/remark.

-	pfreq = (u32 *)of_get_property(pdev->dev.of_node,
-					"clock-frequency", NULL);
-
-	if (pfreq == NULL) {
+	rc = of_property_read_u32(pdev->dev.of_node, "clock-frequency",&pfreq);
+	if (rc) {
  		dev_warn(&pdev->dev,
  			 "The watchdog clock frequency cannot be obtained\n");
  		no_timeout = true;
  	}

-	tmptr = (u32 *)of_get_property(pdev->dev.of_node,
-					"xlnx,wdt-interval", NULL);
-	if (tmptr == NULL) {
+	rc = of_property_read_u32(pdev->dev.of_node, "xlnx,wdt-interval",
+				&xdev->wdt_interval);
+	if (rc) {
  		dev_warn(&pdev->dev,
  			 "Parameter \"xlnx,wdt-interval\" not found\n");
  		no_timeout = true;
-	} else {
-		xdev->wdt_interval = *tmptr;
  	}

-	tmptr = (u32 *)of_get_property(pdev->dev.of_node,
-					"xlnx,wdt-enable-once", NULL);
-	if (tmptr == NULL) {
+	rc = of_property_read_u32(pdev->dev.of_node, "xlnx,wdt-enable-once",
+				&enable_once);
+	if (rc)
  		dev_warn(&pdev->dev,
  			 "Parameter \"xlnx,wdt-enable-once\" not found\n");
-		watchdog_set_nowayout(xilinx_wdt_wdd, true);
-	}
All the above properties are optional. Is a warning really
warranted in this case ? I usually associate a warning with
something that is wrong, which is not the case here.

I would encourage you to drop those warnings, but that should be
a separate patch.
I agree with Guenter: these are not really warnings. Seperate patch is thus welcome.
Hi

I support Michal intention, I think it is a warning because device tree blob must have the "xlnx,wdt-enable-once" property specified in order to allow the system to be sure of the real value of this property. In addition to, this warning can be helpful to detect a wrong device tree specification.

Best regards
Alejandro
