This *RFC* adds a driver stub for ChipIdea USB dual role controllers
found on Marvell MVEBU SoCs. Although, I consider this driver quite
finished, the corresponding DT binding is not. Also, we currently
have no corresponding driver in Linux for both MVEBU CI stub and
USB PHY.
The reason I send it here and now, is to get some input from the
(Linux) MVEBU guys on the binding and functional tests on Armada XP.
My first thought is if this chipidea IP is used beyond the mvebu
ecosystem. Shouldn't we name it and it's compatible strings with
'chipidea' instead of 'marvell'?
While the IP core is CI, you remember the mbus upstream registers?
That registers are very special to MVEBU SoCs and make the IP itself
"marvell".
While working with Dove's SDHCI, I thought about the upstream registers
again. Dove's SDHCI shares those registers with Camera IP which makes
it difficult to find a good DT representation again.
Maybe we should think about moving upstream register setup to mbus
driver instead? That would also allow us to get rid of mvebu specific
boiler plates from those standard (fooHCI) IP drivers.
