Apologies Andy,

I somehow completely missed / lost your mention of a typo in both the
commit and comments. I have no intention of ignoring it. I will correct
this. Thank you for the input you have provided. I have several
questions and comments below.

I was specifically grabbing the areas of memory that I needed instead of
mapping the entire fn2 area of memory. I believe I can map the entire
area instead.

Unfortunately, there is no public datasheet available currently. There
are however some special functions others than being a simple GPIO.
There are ownership bits as the same area is accessible VIA PCI.

Unlike your suggestion I quote directly below are you implying that
My accesses to the CSM area of memory can be its own separate
driver that is MFD and provides GPIO lines to read?

What do you mean by GPIO marking this one as not valid for GPIO
operations?

> I'm not sure this belongs to the GPIO driver.

By this do you mean that it needs to be in a separate non GPIO driver
that shares a regmap as suggested above?

Yes that sounds like a good plan to me I will see what I can work up.
I might end up removing thils file entirely and just sticking with
gpio-gxp-pl.c As for the gpio-gxp-pl.c are you okay with it?


Thank you for the assistance and review,
