Briefly looking at the code, power sequences don't appear to be optional, at least for the DT case, so perhaps you just need to update the documentation to make "pwm-names" non-optional? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
