Personally, I don't like this "i2c-bridge" flag either, but for a different reason - i2c-bridge makes it sound like it's doing something it's not. What it is doing is as you stated in the cover - it's an offload mechanism, just like if it were possible to use DMA to supply the data to the I2C interface. I think Maxime is correct - this should be identified by a variation in the compatible string, not by a flag in DT. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
