The binding is the description, and that description already matches the A31 compatible, and it's completely abstract from whether we have software to support it. We have bindings that have no drivers in the tree for example, but are just there to make the representation complete. In this case, we shouldn't enable it in the A31 DTSI, but we should document the binding properly. > >> + '#mbox-cells': > >> + const: 1 > > > > However, you should document what the argument is about? > > Ok. "Number of cells used to encode a mailbox specifier" should work. It's not really what I meant, what I meant is what is is that specifier you're talking about here. The customers' mailbox properties will have a phandle and a number: what is this number representing? Maxime
