Wouldn't it be simpler to fix the GPIO binding documentation and gpiod_get() code to allow the -gpio suffix in addition to -gpios? It always struck me as silly that the binding required a plural property name when only a single entry made sense. (For something like "clocks", since the property name applies to any clock, and there certainly can be many clocks, a plural property name makes sense. However, since each type of GPIO is "foo-gpios" rather than an "foo" entry in "gpios", that same argument doesn't apply, and a singular property name seems much more correct). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
