Still quite pretty! I would nee Lee Jones to say something about this, as it is essentially hijacking MFD into the pinctrl subsystem. > +static struct mfd_cell ingenic_pinctrl_mfd_cells[] = { > + { > + .id = 0, > + .name = "GPIOA", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-a", > + }, > + { > + .id = 1, > + .name = "GPIOB", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-b", > + }, > + { > + .id = 2, > + .name = "GPIOC", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-c", > + }, > + { > + .id = 3, > + .name = "GPIOD", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-d", > + }, > + { > + .id = 4, > + .name = "GPIOE", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-e", > + }, > + { > + .id = 5, > + .name = "GPIOF", > + .of_compatible = "ingenic,gpio-bank-f", > + }, > +}; (...) > + err = devm_mfd_add_devices(dev, 0, ingenic_pinctrl_mfd_cells, > + ARRAY_SIZE(ingenic_pinctrl_mfd_cells), NULL, 0, NULL); > + if (err) { > + dev_err(dev, "Failed to add MFD devices\n"); > + return err; > + } I guess the alternative would be to reimplement the MFD structure. Did you check the approach to use "simple-mfd" and just let the subnodes spawn as devices that way? I guess you did and this adds something necessary.
