Re: [PATCH v3 4/4] mtd: core: Fix a conflict between MTD and NVMEM on wp-gpios property

Hi Miquel,

Wp-gpios property can be used on NVMEM nodes and the same property can
be also used on MTD NAND nodes. In case of the wp-gpios property is
defined at NAND level node, the GPIO management is done at NAND driver
level. Write protect is disabled when the driver is probed or resumed
and is enabled when the driver is released or suspended.

When no partitions are defined in the NAND DT node, then the NAND DT node
will be passed to NVMEM framework. If wp-gpios property is defined in
this node, the GPIO resource is taken twice and the NAND controller
driver fails to probe.

A new Boolean flag named ignore_wp has been added in nvmem_config.
In case ignore_wp is set, it means that the GPIO is handled by the
provider. Lets set this flag in MTD layer to avoid the conflict on
wp_gpios property.

There seems to be already an mtd core patch [1] that is planned to go via nvmem tree, do you want me to take 3/4 and 4/4 via nvmem tree as well?
Or
you can pick up both the series via mtd tree?

Am okay either way.

Changes in v3:
  - add a fixes tag
  - rename skip_wp_gpio by ignore_wp in nvmen_config.
