Something like this is pretty common (should be moved into the .c file):
static inline unsigned atmel_isi_readl(struct atmel_isi *isi,
unsigned reg)
{
return readl(isi->regs + reg);
}
static inline void atmel_isi_writel(struct atmel_isi *isi,
unsigned reg, unsigned val)
{
writel(val, isi->regs + reg);
}
Then for single bit values you can just do:
#define ISI_REG_CR 0x0000
#define ISI_CR_GRAYSCALE (1 << 13)
cr = isi_readl(isi, ISI_REG_CR);
cr |= ISI_CR_GRAYSCALE;
isi_writel(isi, ISI_REG_CR, cr);
For bit-fields you could do something like:
static void atmel_isi_set_bitfield(struct atmel_isi *isi, unsigned reg,
unsigned offset, unsigned mask,
unsigned val)
{
unsigned tmp;
tmp = atmel_isi_readl(isi, reg);
tmp &= ~(mask << offset);
tmp |= (val & mask) << offset;
atmel_isi_writel(isi, reg, tmp);
}
#define ISI_V2_VCC_SWAP_OFFSET 28
#define ISI_V2_VCC_SWAP_MASK 0x3
atmel_isi_set_bitfield(isi, ISI_REG_CR, ISI_V2_VCC_SWAP_OFFSET,
ISI_V2_SWAP_MASK, 2);
There are only a handful of bit-field accesses in the driver so I don't
think this will make the driver much more verbose and it will remove a
number of _SIZE definitions for the single bit values.

Somebody else suggested leaving out the AT91 dependency to allow better
build coverage. The reason for having the AT91 dependency is so that it
doesn't show up in menuconfig for people on other platforms and
architectures who cannot use the driver. I've always made SoC drivers
depend on their architecture. Not sure what the correct answer is here?

Not sure. Is cap->version meant to be a KERNEL_VERSION value or is it
arbitrary? If nothing from user-space cares then it could just be left
as zero?

The driver should do the check since the reset can fail, and the caller
should be notified. This function should probably be called
atmel_isi_reset rather than atmel_isi_init to better reflect what it does.
