Without commenting on i2c, I think it's bad form form for code that is
essentially an IO library to decide on its own to cause a WDT.  if
some error occurs, that SHOULD be part of the API to whatever app is
using the i2c routines, and then IT can decide whether an
"unrecoverable i2c comm error" is a good reason to reset the entire
chip or not...
