As highlighted on Gerrit [1], I think this is wrong. The device tree
compatible should focus on actual hardware differences, _not_ the way
the device is used.
So I looked at the datasheet, and there are 5 variants of the MT6315.
They all have the same number of VBUCKs, just with different _default_
voltages, Imax, and sequencing. Since the regulator range is the same,
I don't think you need to care about any of this, so I'd have a single
compatible "mediatek,mt6315-regulator".
The one thing that is special here, though, is that you want to
combine regulators for BUCK1, right?
That is, for MT6315PP (id 6), you want to combine BUCK1/2/4 to power
the big cores (hence 0xb = "1011" in patch 3/3), and for MT6315SP (id
7), you want to combine BUCK1/2 (hence 0x3 = 0011).
So, instead of a table here, what I'd do is to figure out a way to
indicate, in the device tree, that bucks 1, 2, 4 need to be combined.
I think the correct way to handle this is to add a
`regulator-coupled-with` property. That is you'd have a device tree
that looks like this:
mt6315_6: mt6315@6 {
compatible = "mediatek,mt6315-regulator";
reg = <0x6 0 0xb 1>;
mt6315_6_vbuck1: vbuck1 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck1";
...
regulator-coupled-with = <&mt6315_6_vbuck2, mt6315_6_vbuck4>;
};
mt6315_6_vbuck2: vbuck2 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck2";
...
};
mt6315_6_vbuck3: vbuck3 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck3";
...
};
mt6315_6_vbuck4: vbuck4 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck4";
...
};
};
Then, at probe time, you can figure out which regulators are coupled
with another one, and only provide controls for the first regulator in
the list (with the proper mask).
Another, simpler way, may look like this:
mt6315_6: mt6315@6 {
compatible = "mediatek,mt6315-regulator";
reg = <0x6 0 0xb 1>;
mt6315_6_vbuck1: vbuck1 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck1";
regulator-mask = <0xb>;
};
mt6315_6_vbuck3: vbuck3 {
regulator-compatible = "vbuck3";
regulator-mask = <0x8>;
};
};
But then it's a bit weird, because 0x8 = 1 << 3, which we can already
infer from "vbuck3" compatible...
