+* ARM Timer Watchdog
+
+ARM 11MP, Cortex-A5 and Cortex-A9 are often associated with a per-core
+Timer-Watchdog (aka TWD), which provides both a per-cpu local timer
+and watchdog.
+
+The TWD is usually attached to a GIC to deliver its two per-processor
+interrupts.
+
+** Timer node required properties:
+
+- compatible : Should be one of:
+	"arm,cortex-a9-twd-timer"
+	"arm,cortex-a5-twd-timer"
+	"arm,arm11mp-twd-timer"
+
+- interrupts : One interrupt to each core
+
+- reg : Specify the base address and the size of the TWD timer
+	register window.
+
+Example:
+
+	twd-timer@2c000600 {
+		compatible = "arm,arm11mp-twd-timer"";
+		reg = <0x2c000600 0x20>;
+		interrupts = <1 13 0xf01>;
+	};
+
+** Watchdog node properties:
+
+- compatible : Should be one of:
+	"arm,cortex-a9-twd-wdt"
+	"arm,cortex-a5-twd-wdt"
+	"arm,arm11mp-twd-wdt"
+
+- interrupts : One interrupt to each core
+
+- reg : Specify the base address and the size of the TWD watchdog
+	register window.
+
+Example:
+
+	twd-watchdog@2c000620 {
+		compatible = "arm,arm11mp-twd-wdt";
+		reg = <0x2c000620 0x20>;
+		interrupts = <1 14 0xf01>;
+	};
