Looks to me like your implementation of WATCHDOG_RESET() is broken. It's not actually resetting the watchdog. That's what you should debug.
I suspect that that is the case, but trawling through the u-boot code it appears that WATCHDOG_RESET is a macro that eventually does one of two things: a) if asm, bl watchdog_reset b) if c, watchdog_reset()
watchdog_reset in turn saves the interrupt state, disables interrupts, invokes reset_4xx_watchdog, then restores the interrupt state.
Finally reset_4xx_watchdog does mtspr(tsr, 0xc0000000) where tsr is 0x150 IIRC.
All of this is in the u-boot source, mostly in cpu.c and watchdog.h (i.e. none of this is custom for my board, it is part of the ppc44x code).
I've dumped the binary to make sure the methods are actually in the code, manipulating the spr, and getting called.
