J. Neuschäfer Sept. 5, 2020, 1:32 p.m. UTC
The Netronix embedded controller is a microcontroller found in some
e-book readers designed by the ODM Netronix, Inc. It contains RTC,
battery monitoring, system power management, and PWM functionality.

This driver implements register access and version detection.

Third-party hardware documentation is available at:

  https://github.com/neuschaefer/linux/wiki/Netronix-MSP430-embedded-controller

The EC supports interrupts, but the driver doesn't make use of them so
far.

Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.neuschaefer@gmx.net>
---

v2:
- Add a description of the device to the patch text
- Unify spelling as 'Netronix embedded controller'.
  'Netronix' is the proper name of the manufacturer, but 'embedded controller'
  is just a label that I have assigned to the device.
- Switch to regmap, avoid regmap use in poweroff and reboot handlers.
  Inspired by cf84dc0bb40f4 ("mfd: rn5t618: Make restart handler atomic safe")
- Use a list of known-working firmware versions instead of checking for a
  known-incompatible version
- Prefix registers with NTXEC_REG_
- Define register values as constants
- Various style cleanups as suggested by Lee Jones
- Don't align = signs in struct initializers [Uwe Kleine-König]
- Don't use dev_dbg for an error message
- Explain sleep in poweroff handler
- Remove (struct ntxec).client
- Switch to .probe_new in i2c driver
- Add .remove callback
- Make CONFIG_MFD_NTXEC a tristate option

This looks way over 80 chars.

All as above for this function.

Wait, what?  This is over-engineered.

Just have a look-up table (switch) of supported devices.

#define EOPNOTSUPP      95      /* Operation not supported on transport endpoint */

I think you want:

#define ENODEV          19      /* No such device */

Why do you call it 'client' in .probe, but 'i2c' in .remove?

I intentionally left it lowercase, because the term 'embedded
controller' is not used in code coming from Netronix. It's just a label
that I found fitting to assign to the device. (In the vendor kernels
it's either called 'msp430', named after the TI MSP430 microcontroller
family, or 'uc', presumably for 'microcontroller')

Adding '(EC)' seems somewhat useful.

No particular reason. If you prefer 2-or-later, I'll change it.

Okay, I'll break it up.

Yes, but it didn't complain about this line. - propabably because the
line length threshold in checkpatch has recently been increased to 100.

I thought it would be useful when we want to attach additional
information to specific versions.... okay, it is over-engineered.

Indeed, EOPNOTSUPP seems quite wrong here. I think I used ENOTSUPP at
some earlier point but moved away from it because it's one of the
internal error codes (≥512).

ENODEV makes sense when I read it as "Not a device that this driver can
deal with".

No particular reason. I'll make them consistent.

At this point, nothing. I'll remove it.
