Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fsi: add property to avoid scanning at boot

These two patches from Chris add an optional property that says the
FSI attached hardware cannot cope with being probed unless the state of
that hardware is known.

This allows the driver to eg. defer to userspace which can make this
decision.

I am collecting patches for a FSI tree to send to Greg, so I am just after
review from the device tree people.

Christopher Bostic (2):
  dt-bindings: fsi: Add optional property no-scan-on-init
  fsi: core: Add check for master property no-scan-on-init
