[PATCH v2 0/2] pinctrl: apple: Add t8140-pinctrl support

[PATCH v2 0/2] pinctrl: apple: Add t8140-pinctrl support

[Yureka Lilian]

This patch series has fixes for probing the pinctrl_ap GPIO controller
on the MacBook Neo. The previous code would crash in the regmap_init on
this device, since reading the REG_GPIOx for certain pins causes an
SError.
To mitigate this, we adapt the gpio-reserved-ranges property to describe
pins which are unusable and whose REG_GPIOx should not be accessed.

Also add the new t8140 base compatible to the dt-bindings, signifying
the different behavior of the t8140 pinctrl_ap device, and make the
driver accept it since it now respects the gpio-reserved-ranges property.

[PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: pinctrl: apple,pinctrl: Add t8140 compatible

[Yureka Lilian]

The pinctrl_ap GPIO controller on the MacBook Neo crashes upon reading
REG_GPIOx for certain pins. These pins, which are also listed in Apple's
device tree, are described by the gpio-reserved-ranges property.

[PATCH v2 2/2] pinctrl: apple: Add t8140-pinctrl support

[Yureka Lilian]

Ensure the regmap does not attempt to read REG_GPIOx of any of the pins
marked with gpio-reserved-ranges. For this purpose, move the regmap_init
just before the first regmap_read, at which point the valid_mask has
been populated from the gpio-reserved-ranges device tree property.
With this, make the driver accept the new t8140 base compatible as with
this modifications the driver can now be loaded on this SoC without
crashing.

Sorry about that, I had to send it twice (this is the first version 
to actually land on the mailing list) and forgot that b4 does the whole 
auto-increment and add these cover letter entries. Will be more careful 
and use --preview-to before *every* send starting from next time.

Thank you for understanding,
