For watchdog patches, if I send a Reviewed-by: tag, I expect Wim to pick
up the patch through the watchdog tree. If I expect some other tree to
pick it up, I use Acked-by: and usually add a note saying that I assume
that the patch will be picked up by someone else.

I usually also add watchdog patches to my own watchdog-next tree as
reference for Wim. I already have several mediatek devicetree patches
queued there. Handling some of the patches through watchdog and others
through some other tree would create a mess. Please don't do that.
