I agree in principle, but it is the same as with the spi-bcm2835aux driver,
where I had provided a patch to the dt, that still has not been applied
yet, but with the driver itself already in the kernel.
Also the reorganisation of the dt to support the bcm2836 makes this
another moving target.
The other concern is that we would need to use defines included
from "dt-bindings/clock/bcm2835aux.h” and without those the dt will not
work.
For the record: this is what would be required:
uart1: uart@7e215040 {
compatible = "brcm,bcm2835-aux-uart";
reg = <0x7e215040 0x40>;
interrupts = <1 29>;
clocks = <&aux BCM2835_AUX_CLOCK_UART>;
status = "disabled";
};
I can respin the whole patchset to include this as well if you tell me to.
