Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: iio: pressure: Add support for
Honeywell HSC SPI sensors
Rob, just to draw your attention, some discussion around
spi-max-frequency that you might want to look at below.

Hi Carlos,
Please try to use an email client (or configure yours to do it)
that adds indentation to each level of reply. It's somewhat
fiddly to separate the different parts of the conversation!

The point is that spi-max-frequency doesn't actually need to be given. If the
fine with which ever is lower of that supported by the device and that supported
by the master then it will use that without spi-max-frequency being provided.
I agree this wasn't previously my understanding but it does make sense. No
obvious reason why this value would need providing by DT unless there is
a board issue that neither of the 'ends' can see.
We might want to look at cleaning this up in general through the bindings
(and making sure device drivers apply there own maximums). Rob
is this a worthwhile cleanup?

Sure, I wasn't aware of them until that day anyway ;)
