[PATCH 1/3] i2c: document binding for multi-master case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We need this binding because some I2C master drivers will need to adapt
their PM settings for the arbitration circuitry.
