This config is based on colibri_imx6_defconfig and enables additionally the watchdog. The intend of the new config is that distros can use this in the future and the behaviour will not be changed for current users.
IMO in general is a bad idea to duplicate a defconfig for the same board, you just duplicate the maintenance effort.
However I am not sure if it would be OK, to just enable the watchdog in the existing colibri_imx6_defconfig. Any suggestions?
I wonder what would be the implication of enabling it by default on the general defconfig.
What about using a debugger or kgdb from Linux? What is the watchdog timeout once you enable it? Can we be sure that the OS will be able to start in time to refresh the watchdog?
