Enable tertiary controller for SA8295P (based on SC8280XP).
Add pinctrl support for usb ports to provide VBUS to connected peripherals.

These are not just pinctrl entries. They hide VBUS regulators. Please
implement them properly as corresponding vbus regulators.


Hi Dmitry. Apologies, can you elaborate on your comment. I thought this
implementation was fine as Konrad reviewed it in v13 [1]. I removed his
RB tag as I made one change of dropping "_state" in labels.

My comment is pretty simple: if I'm not mistaken, your DT doesn't
reflect your hardware design.
You have actual VBUS regulators driven by these GPIO pins. Is this correct?
If so, you should describe them properly in the device tree rather
than describing them just as USB host's pinctrl state.


Hi Dmitry,

   I have very little idea about the gpio controller regulators. I will
go through it and see how I can implement it. I just found this :
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/gpio-regulator.txt

Much simpler, it can be found at
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/fixed-regulator.yaml

Thanks for the reference.


One query. If we model it as a regulator, do we need to add it as a
supply and call regulator_enable in dwc3_qcom probe again ?

Not in probe(), but yes. It needs to be enabled when the VBUS has to
be powered up, when the device is initialised or switched to the host
mode, and disabled when the VBUS has to be powered down, if the device
is being switched to the device mode.


Actually since we never go to device mode, can't we just stick to this pinctrl approach and skip turning on regulator in driver ?

Regards,
Krishna,
