Subject: Re: [PATCH] pinctrl: gpio: vt8500: Add pin control driver for
Wondermedia SoCs
Thanks for the review Stephen,
I have posted replies to most of your points/questions inline.
The review was slightly more in-depth than I expected and as you
noticed, the patch is poor in quality. I was more 'testing the water'
that people were happy with the basic design of the code, rather than
the specifics as I have 4 SoC's worth of data to add, and didn't want to
have to redo it all if I had to make a data format change.
It seems that on the whole the design is ok, so I will post a proper
patch series for this to be reviewed (after addressing the issues you
pointed out).
Regards
Tony Prisk

This was never supposed to be a proper patch - I was more looking for a
consensus from 'the world' that this was an acceptable approach before I
populated 4 soc's worth of data.

Again - this is not a proper patch.

New driver is a gpio provider - but wasn't when I pushed this 'preview'.
Old code needs to be removed - is done in a seperate patch so as not to
break current support all in one go.

Its not 'required' so to speak, so I didn't want to force it on anyone
who doesn't particularly want it - Also, there are 4 SoCs to support, so
it would mean selecting them all.

Fixed in the proper patch.

Nobody who knows is willing to say :). Most of the code for Wondermedia
SoCs is based of the vendor source that has come out, and we therefore
only know what the vendor has included support for.
No doubt there will be other pins which have valid functions, but we
don't know what they are and don't have support for them at the moment.
The reason I went with the bank/pin encoding is so that if/when we add
other pins, it won't affect any pin numbering.

Could do.

Would be nice.

Agreed.
