What we should probably due is have a devicetree/bindings/hwlock/hwlock.txt that would describe generic properties like this and just reference that in the omap binding spec. > > Common hwlock.txt sounds good.

I think we should also be defining a > common property name for number of locks, say hwlock-num-locks. I'm good with that, cell-index is always funny so might as well be explicit. I'm also good with hwlock-num-locks, I'll update the msm spinlock driver to use this. Can you also maybe add some helper functions into the hwspinlock core to return these values so we both don't duplicate code in drivers and maintain consistency. - k -- Employee of Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc.
