Subject: [PULL REQUEST] mux for 4.12
Hi Greg,
Today seemed like a good day to send you the pull request for the new mux
controller subsystem. I hope the details are ok. If not, let me know and
I'll try to rework it. I also included some text for the merge commit, if
you want/need it:
This adds a new mux controller subsystem with an interface for accessing
mux controllers, along with two drivers providing the interface (gpio
and adg792) and two consumers (iio and i2c). This is done in such a way
that several consumers can independently access the same mux controller
if one controller controls several multiplexers, thus allowing sharing.
But sharing is by no means required, of course. It is perfectly fine to
have a single consumer of a dedicated mux controller controlling only
one mux for said consumer.
The prediction is that the typical use case will be for gpio-based muxing
(which is also what drove the development), where the below schematics
show the flexibility with one gpio-based mux controller being shared by
the iio-mux and i2c-mux-gpmux drivers.

GPO0 and GPO1 may also be fed to further parallel muxers, which is perhaps
desired in a real application to minimize digital noise from the i2c Y
channel leaking into the analog X channel. I.e. it might be a good idea
to separate the analog and digital signals...
And the below hypothetical schematics indicate something similar but using
the i2c-based adg792a multiplexer instead.
