[PATCH] dt-bindings: watchdog: renesas,wdt: Document RZ/G3L support

[Biju]

From: Biju Das <biju.das.jz@bp.renesas.com>

Document the support for the watchdog IP available on RZ/G3L SoC. The
watchdog IP available on RZ/G3L SoC is identical to the one found on
RZ/G2L SoC.

However, there seems to be a small difference in the formulas for the
timeout register value on the various SoCs:

RZ/G2L, RZ/G2UL, and RZ/V2L:

    WDTTIME setting value = \frac{WDT cycle}{(WDTn_CLK (n = 0,1,2)
cycle × 1024 × 1024) − 1}

RZ/G3S and RZ/G3E:

    WDTTIME setting value = \frac{WDT cycle}{(WDTn_CLK (n = 0,1,2)
cycle × 1024 × 1024} − 1

I.e. on the former, the "- 1" offset is inside the denominator, while
on the former, it is outside the fraction.  I assume this is just a typo
in the documentation, and both formulas are supposed to be identical, so

Hi Geert,

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree it is a typo on RZ/G2L, RZ/G2UL, and RZ/V2L hardware manual, I will report this issue to
Documentation team.

as

Watchdog timer cycle = WDTn_CLK (n = 0, 1, 2) cycle × 1024 × 1024 × (WDTTIME setting value + 1)

To get min/max value 43.69/178956.97 msec with 24 MHz mentioned on all DoCs,

WDT min Cycle = 1024 * 1024 * (0 + 1) / (24 * 10^6) = 0.043690 = 43.69 msec
WDT max cycle = 1024 * 1024 * (0xfff + 1) / (24 * 10^6) = 178956.97 msec
