Actually this appears to be incorrect Kirkwood does configure timer1 as a clockevent timer. So I can't just grab timer1 for all platforms.

It invokes the regular orion_wdt_irq(). On Armada-385 prior to this change the irq was not specified because the reset always kicked in so there was no point.
For correctness I could make the devicetree binding specify 2 interrupts. One for the regular watchdog interrupt (which would never usually get hit because the reset would kick in) and one for the pretimeout/timer1.
