The hack itself seems to be copied from Linux rti_wdt.c, but the WDT reset principle is different in U-Boot. While Linux relies on correct frequencies and timers and doesn't check the actual WDT counter value U-Boot driver seems to be more robust: it does compare RTIDWDCNTR vs RTIDWDPRLD.
Now the root cause of the original motivation to manipulate the clock rate is said to be understood and fixed in Linux commit cae58516534e ("watchdog: rti_wdt: Set min_hw_heartbeat_ms to accommodate a safety margin") which simultaneously removed the hack itself.
While is fix part of the mentioned patch is neither applicable nor requried for the U-Boot driver just drop the hack setting WDT clock rate to 90% of the real rate. This has a nice effect that the WDT timeout is now as requested and not 10% shorter.
