What board do you mean? I am unable to locate ZBT-WE1206 neither in
the repository, nor in google.

An external watchdog either self-initialized during on power-up or
initialized by a bootloader. So there is no such option as disabling
it. It is usually sufficient to add a small node to the board DTS file
to fully support the external watchdog and avoid unexpected reboots.

If a board is supported in the main OpenWrt, then the code should be
fixed in it.
