I understand the concern risen by Jonghwa. In fact, this is a bit
confusing. The way I have decided to design the driver for TI
(drivers/thermal/ti-soc-thermal under thermal tree next branch) is to
have one platform device for the bandgap IP (that would be probably
equivalent of your TMU).
Reasoning is to have a exact match between platform device and real HW
device interface. Thus its device resources are belonging to one single
device node. In TIs case, the resources, regarding IRQs, IO map area,
registers, etc, are belonging to the bandgap IP not to sensors. That
alone convinced me to use one single device node, instead of several,
per sensor. In fact, for OMAP devices it is a bit more complicated as
the bandgap is actually behind the control module, which holds the
interface. But that is another story.
So, in this case I decided to have 1 single platform device representing
the bandgap IP, which exposes and handles several thermal zones (one per
sensor). And of course, owns and manages all related resources (IRQ,
gpio and IO mem area).
To what I have understood of your case, I believe it is the very same
case, so I would recommend reusing the proposed design.
Keep in mind that this obviously does not stop you of having different
policies or trip setups per sensor. The framework is flexible in this sense.
I hope this helps.
