Re: [PATCH v3 1/2] drivers: watchdog: add a driver to support SAMA5D4 watchdog timer

consistency? Other AT91 entries don't have an '_' between 'AT91' and
the remainder of the Kconfig name.

Reboot didn't what? 'succeed' perhaps?

The empty initializer must always be the last element of the array, so
there is no point in having a trailing ',' (whose purpose is to
facilitate adding more entries after the last one).
Without the comma there will be a compile error if (e.g. due to a
badly resolved merge conflict) an additional entry would be added after
the stop marker. With the comma after the stop marker any trailing
entries would silently be ignored.
