Right, but I don't think pci_pwrctl_pwrseq_probe() knows about those
different sets. It basically looks like:
pci_pwrctl_pwrseq_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
struct pci_pwrctl_pwrseq_data *data;
struct device *dev = &pdev->dev;
data->pwrseq = devm_pwrseq_get(dev, of_device_get_match_data(dev));
pwrseq_power_on(data->pwrseq);
data->ctx.dev = dev;
devm_pci_pwrctl_device_set_ready(dev, &data->ctx);
}
I think of_device_get_match_data(dev) will return "wlan" for both
"pci17cb,1101" and "pci17cb,1107", so devm_pwrseq_get(),
pwrseq_power_on(), and devm_pci_pwrctl_device_set_ready() don't see
the distinction between them.
Of course, they also get "dev", so they can find the device-specifc
stuff that way, but I think that's on the drivers/power/sequencing/
side, not in this pci-pwrctl-pwrseq driver itself.
So what if there were a more generic "compatible" string, e.g., if the
DT contained something like this:
wifi@0 {
compatible = "pci17cb,1101", "wlan-pwrseq";
...
}
and pci_pwrctl_pwrseq_of_match[] had this:
{ .compatible = "wlan-pwrseq", .data = "wlan", }
Wouldn't this pci-pwrctl-pwrseq driver work the same? I'm not a DT
whiz, so likely I'm missing something, but it would be nice if we
didn't have to update this very generic-looking driver to add every
device that needs it.
