How do you see bindings for other kinds of drivers?
In my patchset, it's possible for other drivers to use gpio-blocks.
One example we have is a power sequencer with 2 pins attached
to GPIO pins. These 2 pins form a 2bit word to select power margining.
These 2 pins need to be set synchronously (as otherwise when going
from profile 0 to profile 3 you pass either profile 1 or profile 2 which
could be bad for hardware)
In the device-tree this is specified as:
powr@...0 {
// other properties
gpios = <&gpio 4 0
&gpio 5 0>;
};
Is this kind of integration also possible?
