The LPC controller has no concept of the BMC and the Host partitions. The incorrect partitioning can impose unnecessary range restrictions on register access through the syscon regmap interface. For instance, HICRB contains the I/O port address configuration of KCS channel 1/2. However, the KCS#1/#2 drivers cannot access HICRB as it is located at the other LPC partition. In addition, to be backward compatible, the newly added HW control bits could be located at any reserved bits over the LPC addressing space. Thereby, this patch series aims to remove the LPC partitioning for better driver development and maintenance. This requires the change to both the device tree and the driver implementation. To ensure both sides are synchronously updated, a v2 binding check is added. Chagnes since v4: - Add child node example in dt-bindings. Chagnes since v3: - Revise binding check as suggested by Haiyue Wang. Changes since v2: - Add v2 binding check to ensure the synchronization between the device tree change and the driver register offset fix. Changes since v1: - Add the fix to the aspeed-lpc binding documentation.
