Maybe, but you will get a data abort when the HW doesn't accept a read. 
How do you recover from that?

Also, it seems that for some reason the watchdog HW is very picky about 
which registers can be read in what condition. If I add the code to read 
watchdog counter register, I will get a data abort later at the end of 
the probe when the watchdog revision is read. I don't understand why 
that happens, this does not seem logica. Maybe it has got something to 
do with the fact that the watchdog is stopped? If I can't read the 
counter register, I can't really implement the above heuristic.. Any ideas?
