Either the serial line is very slow, or timings are off in the watchdog code
so it triggers too early (should need to see no softirq activity for 5
seconds before watchdog fires).

We could put a watchdog_disable()/enable() around the 'd' key handler, if
it's just simply that the serial output is taking too long.
