[PATCH 1/2][v7] dt-bindings: mtd-physmap: Add endianness supports

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Connection between flash and controller is not necessary to be always
of same type. It may varies from platform to platform.

Adding endianness (optional) property to provide connection type
information.
