Yeah, well I just can't please everybody. V6/V7 didn't have the
system timer or clocksource in devicetree, which was good for
you, but then the driver nearly doubled in size and complexity,
and Thierry rightfully refused it. Now I'm at the point where
You mean Daniel?
Oops - I meant Daniel yes.
I'm trying alternative ways of encoding the information in
devicetree, as suggested by various people, just so that you
accept it. Because I don't see any other option.
Does the problem boil down to needing to reserve channel x to use PWMx
pin? If so, just do a mask property of reserved for PWM channels.
Yes, that's exactly the problem. I will go with a property then. Thanks!
Sorry this is going in circles.
