If we get the parent device, regmap handle and interrupt number from

core independent of the PMIC (MAX77620 or MAX77686), then same driver

Two way which I can think of here:
Parent device is just dev->parent, you can use dev_get_regmap() to
get a
regmap given a struct device and you can use platform resources to
pass
the interrupts to the children from the MFD (there's some examples,
wm831x is one).
I think it should work with named regmap. mfd whould init regmap
with name
and rtc driver should ask with same name.
I saw three drivers which looks same:
rtc-max77620.c (new from me) and already available rtc-max77686.c,
rtc-max77802.c
Seems I can develop IP based rtc driver as rtc-max77xxx.c
I came with one of issue when doing this.
The RTC driver parent is not the same parent for which i2c slave
address get
registered.
There is two slave address from max77620, 0x3C (for general) and 0x68
for
RTC.
In max77620 mfd driver, we make dummy i2c client for 0x68 and initialize
regmap with this address.
Now on mfd_add_devices, we pass the device for 0x3c and hence the RTC
driver
treat the parent as the 0x3c device but actually it should be 0x68 to
get
the proper regmap.
Two approach:
1. If we add the option to pass parent_dev when adding cells form
mfd_add_devices and select the parent device based on this option
then it
can be easily handle.
Add parent_dev structure in struct mfd_cell and then change the
parent
in mfd_add_device() if cells has parent device.
2. Register the RTC driver with different mfd_add_devices with dummy i2c
client device.
So two times mfd_add_devices.
Lexman,
I don't quite get the problem. This looks exactly the same as for
max77686. What is the difference? I don't see any need to change the
mfd_cell for current drivers...
Here the change is only required to pass the regmap handle from mfd to
the rtc driver. There is no change for rest of rtc driver.
RTC i2c regmap registered with i2c dummy client device, not with actual
parent device and hence we need to register RTC with this dummy i2c
client device. This way we can get regmap handle by using the
dev_get_regmap(pdev->dev.parent).
