I understand that for now, you only support a single flash, and you
don't need any extra flash-specific DT properties, but in the interest
of being more generic and more in-line with other drivers, can you
include:
* #addres-cells (= <1>) and #size-cells (= <0>) properties
* sub-node(s) representing the flash; reference [1], and there's a
good example in a recent submission [2]
So I'd expect something like:
nor_flash: nor@1100d000 {
compatible = "mediatek,mt8173-nor";
...
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
flash@0 {
compatible = "jedec,spi-nor";
reg = <0>;
...
};
};
This patch is also relevant [3] (hopefully I'll get to merge that one
soon); you'll want to use the sub-node (not the main node) when
initializing the flash device.
I think maybe we'll want to codify some of this in a "SPI NOR
controller" document, so we can make sure more developers follow this
when designing their binding.
