This gets rid of the need for a pointless 'reg' property for i2c arbitrators. I.e. this new and more compact style some-arbitrator { i2c-mux { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; some-i2c-device@50 { reg = <0x50>; }; }; }; instead of the old some-arbitrator { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; i2c@0 { reg = <0>; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; some-i2c-device@50 { reg = <0x50>; }; }; }; Signed-off-by: Peter Rosin <peda@xxxxxxxxxx> --- .../bindings/i2c/i2c-arb-gpio-challenge.txt | 8 ++--- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt | 35 ++++++++++++++++++++++ MAINTAINERS | 1 + 3 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb-gpio-challenge.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb-gpio-challenge.txt index 71191ff0e781..248a155414c2 100644 --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb-gpio-challenge.txt +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb-gpio-challenge.txt @@ -44,8 +44,7 @@ Required properties: - our-claim-gpio: The GPIO that we use to claim the bus. - their-claim-gpios: The GPIOs that the other sides use to claim the bus.
