Sorry, I still don't understand.

IIUC, setting STAUPD_PRD sets the period at which status updates are
reported (announced via the shared STAUPD/WDT interrupt).

So, setting STAUPD_PRD=5 should set the reporting period to 98.5 us.
But, how does changing this period fix the "unexpected interrupt"?
I can understand how it might change the timing of the interrupt, but
why does it make the interrupt no longer occur?
We are still triggering the interrupt when we write bit[25]
(STAUPD_TRIG) of WDT_SRC_EN, two lines later.

Isn't this still requesting a STAUPD interrupt 98.5 us later?  (which,
since STAUPD interrupts aren't handled, is an "unexpected interrupt")
Wouldn't a better fix be to just clear the STAUPD_TRIG bit of
WDT_SRC_EN, and just not trigger STAUPD in the first place if we can't
handle them?
