The patch regulator: fixed/gpio: Update device tree bindings has been applied to the regulator tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 0d362f88573d67e661a45932e4eb1a2ab42ffae2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2019 17:27:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] regulator: fixed/gpio: Update device tree bindings Deprecate the open drain binding for fixed regulator and indicate that we prefer this to be passed in the GPIO phandle flags. Clarify that the line inversion semantics for fixed and GPIO regulators completely overrides the active low flags in the phandle flags. Unfortunately this can not be changed to prefer that we pass the flags in the phandle: the bindings have been specified and deployed such that the presence/absence of this flag and only that controls the line inversion semantics. The crucial semantic is that the absence of the flag means the core will assume the line is active low, which in GPIO terms is an exception, as GPIO lines are normally assumed to be active high. This special device tree semantic cannot be changed without introducing a whole new compatible string for the fixed and GPIO regulators, so we just contain the situation.
