Update the documentation for the binding 'sustainable-power' and allow to provide values in an abstract scale. It is required when the cooling devices use an abstract scale for their power values. Signed-off-by: Lukasz Luba <lukasz.luba@xxxxxxx> --- Hi Rob, This is a fixed patch for DT binding, which now passes the make dt_binding_check (I have changed tabs into spaces). The former patch error that I have received is here [1].
