in v3 of this patch Rob commented that there shouldn't be an OF node
if there are no additional properties
with timeout-sec there's now an additional property so my
understanding is that it's fine to have an OF node
Your understanding is correct.
what I don't understand yet is where this node should be placed.
is it supposed to be a child node of the secure monitor node (for
which we already have a binding here:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/firmware/meson/meson_sm.txt) or
where else would we place it inside the .dts?
IMO, Although the watchdog node need to reference the meson_sm node,
there is no
bus-like dependencies between the devices which the two nodes
corresponding to.
so i think that the watchdog node as child node of meson_sm maybe not
appropriate.
