[PATCH v2 0/4] arm64: dts: amlogic: meson-s4-khadas-vim1s: enable LEDs, Keys and Bluetooth

[Nick Xie]

This series enables various user interfaces and the Bluetooth module
for the Khadas VIM1S board (Amlogic S905Y4).

This builds upon the existing board support to fully enable the
user-facing peripherals.

Changes in v2:
- Dropped the SARADC and Function Key patches from this series. As
  suggested by Martin Blumenstingl, a dedicated compatible string and
  driver update for the S4 SARADC will be submitted in a separate series
  to ensure forward compatibility.
- Patch 1: Split the UART_A pinctrl definitions in meson-s4.dtsi into
  separate rx/tx and rts/cts groups to keep the SoC dtsi generic
  (Martin Blumenstingl).
- Patch 2: Assigned the UART_A pinctrl groups directly in the board dts.
- Added Martin's 'Reviewed-by' tags to Patches 2, 3, and 4.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-amlogic/20260123022258.136448-1-nick@khadas.com/

[PATCH v2 1/4] arm64: dts: amlogic: meson-s4: add UART_A node

[Nick Xie]

Add the UART_A node and its related pinctrl definitions to the
Meson S4 SoC dtsi.

The pinctrl groups are split into basic tx/rx and flow control (cts/rts)
to allow board-level flexibility.

This interface is typically used for Bluetooth communication on
boards like the Khadas VIM1S.

[PATCH v2 2/4] arm64: dts: amlogic: meson-s4-s905y4-khadas-vim1s: enable bluetooth

[Nick Xie]

The Khadas VIM1S board uses the Ampak AP6256 Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module.
The Bluetooth controller is connected via UART_A and requires the
external 32k clock (LPO).

Enable the UART_A node and add the bluetooth child node to support it.

[PATCH v2 3/4] arm64: dts: amlogic: meson-s4-s905y4-khadas-vim1s: add PWM LED support

[Nick Xie]

The Khadas VIM1S board features a white LED connected to the PWM_G
controller (PWM channel 0).

Enable the PWM_G controller and add the pwm-leds node to support
using this LED as a heartbeat indicator.

[PATCH v2 4/4] arm64: dts: amlogic: meson-s4-s905y4-khadas-vim1s: add POWER key support

[Nick Xie]

Add the gpio-keys-polled node to support the Power button found on the
Khadas VIM1S board. The button is connected to the GPIOD_8 pin.

Use polled mode instead of gpio-keys because the GPIO interrupt
controller support for Meson S4 SoC is not yet available upstream.

These changes has been applied on the intermediate git tree [1].

The v7.1/arm64-dt branch will then be sent via a formal Pull Request to the Linux SoC maintainers
for inclusion in their intermediate git branches in order to be sent to Linus during
the next merge window, or sooner if it's a set of fixes.

In the cases of fixes, those will be merged in the current release candidate
kernel and as soon they appear on the Linux master branch they will be
backported to the previous Stable and Long-Stable kernels [2].

The intermediate git branches are merged daily in the linux-next tree [3],
people are encouraged testing these pre-release kernels and report issues on the
relevant mailing-lists.

If problems are discovered on those changes, please submit a signed-off-by revert
patch followed by a corrective changeset.
