To elaborate on this, I listed that as a dependency because that patch adds
the compatible string for the watchdog timer, and I was also under the
impression that drivers must be already in-tree before a DTS patch which
uses the hardware the drivers support can be applied (otherwise you
would be merging a DTS of which parts do not work as the prerequisite
drivers are not in the kernel).

Is this not the case?

Kind regards,
