+description: |
+ System controller node represents a register region containing a set
+ of miscellaneous registers. The registers are not cohesive enough to
+ represent as any specific type of device. The typical use-case is
+ for some other node's driver, or platform-specific code, to acquire
+ a reference to the syscon node (e.g. by phandle, node path, or
+ search using a specific compatible value), interrogate the node (or
+ associated OS driver) to determine the location of the registers,
+ and access the registers directly.
Looks like you copied the generic description? Describe what MISC
contains.
I don't know what all MISC contains (or maybe I do, but it is not
publicly available so I'm not going to add anything that hasn't
already been found by clean-room reverse engineering [0]).
This is the point I was trying to make in that thread on v3. The
node's content *is* the hardware description. Every time a new
register is found it could have just been added to the DT. But now
we also have to go back here and add the exact same information
to the binding, every time. We don't require that for simple-bus,
should simple-mfd be given the same flexibility?
