    Thanks for your answer.

    I seem to miss something about registration of watchdog device. The
    secure watchdog driver is used only to A1/C1 compatible SoCs, but is not
    support for previous SoCs (Eg: gxl axg).

    I have to think about platform difference If I use the
    platform_device_register_simple() to register the wdt device in secure
    fw driver, because fw driver is compatible with all known SoCs, but the
    secure wdt driver is only compatible with some SoCs. In other
    words, the registered wdt device is useless for gxl or axg.

    There is no such problem If I use the DT to describe the wdt device.
