I guess it was just to group it all together, as it will all be used
at the same time:

	regmap_update_bits(st_wdog->syscfg->regmap,
			   st_wdog->syscfg->reset_type_reg,
			   st_wdog->syscfg->reset_type_mask,
			   st_wdog->warm_reset);

It really doesn't matter to me either way.

You're right.  Will fix.
