Hi Brian,

RK3399 has rst_pulse_length in CONTROL_REG[4:2], determining the length
of pulse to issue for system reset. We shouldn't clobber this value,
because that might make the system reset ineffective. On RK3399, we're
seeing that a value of 000b (meaning 2 cycles) yields an unreliable
(partial?) reset, and so we only fully reset after the watchdog fires a
second time. If we retain the system default (010b, or 8 clock cycles),
then the watchdog reset is much more reliable.

Read-modify-write retains the system value and improves reset
reliability.

You don't talk about this change in the description.

Similar code is in dw_wdt_restart(), where it may be equally or even
more important. Granted, only if the watchdog isn't running, but still...
