Agreed, it should be part of the various docs we are suppose to produce for review and binding creation guidelines. >>> +- For additional required properties on SPI, please consult >>> + Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-bus.txt >>> + >>> +Optional properties: >>> +- ti,use-eeprom : If found, configuration will be loaded from eeprom. >> >> can you be a bit more specific on what cfg will be loaded.

Probably, ti,wl1251-has-eeprom or something like that would be better. However, I'm not going to get too caught up on names of properties. - k -- Employee of Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc.
