Why isn't this information in the 'interconnect' arg cells?

We have 'interconnect-names' because strings don't mix with cells. An
expanding list of 'interconnect-.*' is not a good pattern IMO.

Rob,
Currently the interconnect paths
assume a default tag and only few
icc paths require tags that differ
from the default ones. Encoding the
tags in the interconnect arg cells
would force all paths to specify
the tags. I guess that's okay.

I think that's the right thing. Those cells are meant to be "args" to
the provider.

Saravana/Georgi,
A few concerns here, I feel tag info as the second arg to the provider
may not be true for all socs. Does introducing soc specific of_icc_get
functions make sense?



Also, is there an example for interconnect-tags that I missed? Is it a
list of strings, numbers, etc?

Saravana,
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11527589/
^^ is an example of interconnect-tag useage.

If we actually merge interconnect-tags, I think the doc should be
updated. Instead of having to grep around.
