I asked Linus Walleij about that with the fwnode_get_named_gpiod() stuff, and Linus didn't seem to know how this should be used. It doesn't help that dev->fwnode is not initialised, but dev->of_node is. Are we supposed to grope around in dev->of_node for the embedded fwnode instead of using dev->fwnode? At the moment, at least to me, fwnode looks like some kind of experimental half-baked thing rather than a real usable solution. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dmaengine" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
