We could make it conditional based > upon whether the DT contains the property or not. I've been looking at this and haven't found a good solution. From what I see, the pinctrl driver doesn't have a reference to the gpio device node so cannot tell if it needs to add the range or not. The gpio driver can tell whether it should add the range or not, but if it has to because the gpio-ranges property isn't there, then it doesn't have the reference to the pinctrl device to set the range to. So, given that pinctrl_add_gpio_range is deprecated already, wonder if the lesser evil isn't leaving the duplicated entries for now. On newer SoC revisions such as T210 we can stop calling pinctrl_add_gpio_range at all. Or, we can accept that nobody is going to boot a newer kernel with an older DT on the affected boards and just rely on the presence of the gpio-ranges property :) Regards, Tomeu -- 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
