I think it would be better if you were to expand on "watchdog: core:
add restart handler support" to give you the parameters you need to
make the restart hook work for you. But that is up to watchdog
maintainers to decide.

What are you using from mach/platform.h?

Doesn't the watchdog driver already enable this clock in probe?
Either way doing a direct write to LPC32XX_CLKPWR_TIMER_CLK_CTRL from
here isn't very nice.

Why can you just the stuff from pnx4008_wdt_sys_reset() in this function?

Checking return value would be a nice thing to do.

You should also do a unregister_restart_handler() in driver remove hook.
