So the watchdog driver would get an error if CONFIG_INTEL_PMC_IPC
is not defined ? And that is supposed to be acceptable ?

Unless I am missing something, there is no explicit dependency. AFAICS
the watchdog driver works just fine if INTEL_PMIC_IPC is not enabled,
and/or if it is built as module and the module is not loaded.

Maybe you mean that the watchdog driver doesn't load if the INTEL_PMIC_IPC
driver is loaded. That would be a bug, not a dependency.
