+ltc3651-charger
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible: "lltc,ltc3651-charger"
+ - acpr-gpios: Connect to ACPR output. See remark below.
+
+Optional properties:
+ - fault-gpios: Connect to FAULT output. See remark below.
+ - chrg-gpios: Connect to CHRG output. See remark below.

All the gpios need vendor prefix.

Will prefix "lltc," adjust the driver and submit new patches.


+
+The ltc3651 outputs are open-drain type and active low. The driver assumes the
+GPIO reports "active" when the output is asserted, so if the pins have been
+connected directly, the GPIO flags should be set to active low also.
+
+The driver will attempt to aquire interrupts for all GPIOs. If the system is
+not capabale of providing that, the driver cannot report changes and userspace
+will need to periodically read the sysfs attributes to detect changes.

If these are interrupts, then you should use the interrupt binding
instead (most GPIO controllers are also interrupt controllers).

They're GPIO (the driver needs the current state), the use of interrupts is just to detect changes. Similar to gpio-charger for example. Interrupt bindings cannot provide the current state of the line.



+
+Example:
+
+	charger: battery-charger {
+		compatible = "lltc,ltc3651-charger";
+		acpr-gpios = <&gpio0 68 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+		fault-gpios = <&gpio0 64 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+		chrg-gpios = <&gpio0 63 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
+	};
