Drop ROHM BD70528 support Unfortunately there has not been a big demand for ROHM BD70528 IC. The few users I know control PMIC from separate M4-core, which is not running Linux. I am not aware of any users of this Linux driver. While I did really like this IC and writing the drivers for it, seems like these drivers are becoming useless burden. So, I see no point in maintaining them. Let's just drop the drivers if there is no objections to this series. :( The regulator, WDG and power-supply drivers were already dropped. The RTC and clk drivers remain in use by few other ROHM IC drivers. Nevertheless, they are already converted to not depend the BD70528 defines during previous cycle. This series cleans the remaining pieces, GPIO, MFD, dt-bindings and MAINTAINER entries. The GPIO code uses defines from MFD - but the GPIO part is also depending on MFD KConfig entry - so there should be no breakages even if the patches were applied to respective subsystem trees and were not carried via single tree. --- Matti Vaittinen (4): dt-bindings: mfd: regulator: Drop BD70528 support gpio: bd70528 Drop BD70528 support mfd: bd70528: Drop BD70528 support MAINTAINERS: bd70528: Drop ROHM BD70528 drivers .../bindings/mfd/rohm,bd70528-pmic.txt | 102 ----- .../regulator/rohm,bd70528-regulator.txt | 68 --- MAINTAINERS | 8 - drivers/gpio/Kconfig | 11 - drivers/gpio/Makefile | 1 - drivers/gpio/gpio-bd70528.c | 230 ----------- drivers/mfd/Kconfig | 17 - drivers/mfd/Makefile | 1 - drivers/mfd/rohm-bd70528.c | 314 -------------- include/linux/mfd/rohm-bd70528.h | 389 ------------------ include/linux/mfd/rohm-generic.h | 1 - 11 files changed, 1142 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/rohm,bd70528-pmic.txt delete mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/rohm,bd70528-regulator.txt delete mode 100644 drivers/gpio/gpio-bd70528.c delete mode 100644 drivers/mfd/rohm-bd70528.c delete mode 100644 include/linux/mfd/rohm-bd70528.h base-commit: 3906fe9bb7f1a2c8667ae54e967dc8690824f4ea -- 2.31.1 -- Matti Vaittinen, Linux device drivers ROHM Semiconductors, Finland SWDC Kiviharjunlenkki 1E 90220 OULU FINLAND ~~~ "I don't think so," said Rene Descartes.
