Hmm, this would mean a dependency on CONFIG_SAMSUNG_WDT_RESET then. Is 
there a need to fall back to it on platforms which support soft reset 
(assuming that CCF driver would always install its restart handler on 
applicable platforms)?

Note that you can make the restart field NULL in mach_desc in board files.

Best regards,
Tomasz
