There's always going to be very little content in the driver that relates to this SoC, given that a single bit flip enables/disables power. All other device tree drivers allow a register address to be specified for the device, how is an offset in the regmap any different? >> The mask is used as there's one bit per regulator in the register, but >> there's more than one way to express this in the DT: > > I wouldn't expect to see it in the device tree at all for a device > specific driver. If there isn't an individual entry in DT for each regulator, how is it supposed to work? There's no #regulator-cells property. -- Simon Arlott -- 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
