Will fix this in v3, thank you.

OK, this look cleaner, will use this, thanks.

I'm assuming that i.MX7D doesn't enter any of low-power modes including 
WAIT mode. If this is the case the watchdog wouldn't get disabled.

Anyway, I will add a short comment regarding the unknown behaviour of 
this property with i.MX7D device.
