Yes (although it's fine to make the driver only look for the first of those, since you say they're all compatible, and currently the driver doesn't care about exactly which HW is in use). >>> +- reg: physical base address and length of the registers used by the pwm channel >>> + NB: One device instance must be created for each pwm that is used, so the >>> + length covers only the register window for one pwm output, not that of the >>> + entire pwm controller.

I don't think there's any issue with deviating; that's exactly what #pwm-cells is for. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
