This is not correct. Here should be just CONFIG_WDT.
Because there are cases where you want just start watchdog in u-boot but never service it by u-boot.
AFAIK, this would change the current behavior. Currently, only when CONFIG_WATCHDOG is enabled the watchdog driver is started automatically in U-Boot (and serviced). If I make the change you suggest above, all boards defining CONFIG_WDT (DM watchdog support) will automatically enable the watchdog. This might make sense, but AFAICT this changes the current behavior.
The question is what default is. Because when I was adding support for Zynq/ZynqMP/Microblaze this logic is used there. I think that WDT should be there and if you think there are boards which want to have both we can cover that by Kconfig.
As mentioned above, I agree that it makes sense to start the watchdog automatically, if its enabled / selected via CONFIG_WDT. I suggest that I move forward with your suggested change, but it would be fair to Cc the maintainers of boards that have CONFIG_WDT set but CONFIG_WATCHDOG unset. Do you (or anyone else) know of a tool / script to detect such board configurations in U-Boot (one option set and another unset)?
good. Tom?
I've run a Travis job on all boards with an error added for this configuration (CONFIG_WDT set but CONFIG_WATCHDOG unset). Here the list of these boards with their maintainers:

On this board disabling watchdog servicing was done by purpose.
