In linux kernel since version 2.6.12
The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
/dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
it has been started.
