This interface is essentially exposing the remoteproc->power refcount to user space; is that okay? Seems like it makes it easy to underflow remoteproc->power through successive shutdown calls. The other debugfs interface in remoteproc that has a write method (recovery) accepts more expressive string commands as opposed to 0/1. It would be more consistent for this interface to take commands such as "boot" and "shutdown" IMO. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
