This should be conditioned on being able to divide up the registers by bank which seems like you can't. Or there's the case like the DW GPIO block and the number of banks is configurable. > If this is not a good approach, could you please me point me out to a > device tree example where > the correct approach is being used? I'm not sure offhand. There are lots of examples of single nodes I'm sure. Which ones have banks I haven't a clue. IIRC, there were some cases where the bank # was part of the GPIO cells, but I seem to recall Linus prefers not having 3 cells.
