OK, I can add check of "fsl,imx-scu" in init function and ONLY instantiate the driver if it exist, since there is no watchdog node in devicetree and "fsl,imx-scu" should be treated as watchdog node, so adding such check also makes some sense, putting it inside SCU driver is NOT that good I think, do you agree?
