Hi, Philipp, How is the status of syscon patch in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/27/422 ? Will this patch be accepted in feature release 3.19?

Could I please get an ack for the device tree binding change so the MFD maintainers can take this patch? I'd like to queue the Mediatek reset driver, which depends on this. regards Philipp > Signed-off-by: Philipp Zabel <p.zabel@pengutronix.de> > --- > Changes since v1: > - Reworded binding documentation to allow #size-cells = <1>, which is useful > for syscon children that are controlled through a (possibly shared) register > range. > --- > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.txt | 13 +++++++++++++ > drivers/mfd/syscon.c | 3 +++ > 2 files changed, 16 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.txt > index fe8150b..0c6b497 100644 > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.txt > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.txt > @@ -9,12 +9,25 @@ using a specific compatible value), interrogate the node (or associated > OS driver) to determine the location of the registers, and access the > registers directly. > > +Optionally, devices that are controlled exclusively through syscon registers, > +or even bitfields in shared syscon registers, can also be added as child nodes > +to the syscon device node.

For devices which have a complete register for themselves, it is possible to place them next to the syscon device with overlapping reg ranges. The same is not possible for devices which only occupy bitfields in registers shared with other users. For devices that are completely controlled by bitfields in the syscon address range, such as multiplexers or voltage regulators, allow to put child devices into the syscon device node.
