[PATCH 0/4] regulator: s2mps11: Add external GPIO control for S2MPS14

[PATCH 0/4] regulator: s2mps11: Add external GPIO control for S2MPS14

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Hi,

This patchset adds external GPIO control to s2mps11 regulator driver
for some of the S2MPS14 regulators.

Additionally (patch 4/4) it changes the bindings in s5m8767 regulator driver
for external control to match these used here:
	"samsung,ext-control-gpios"

Best regards,
Krzysztof

[PATCH 1/4] regulator: s2mps11: Move DTS parsing code to separate function

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Refactor code for parsing DTS to increase a little code readability. The
behaviour should not change.

[PATCH 2/4] regulator: s2mps11: Add external GPIO control for S2MPS14

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Add support for external control over GPIO for LDO10, LDO11 and LDO12
S2MPS14 regulators. External control can be turned on by writing 0x0 to
control register which in case of other regulators is used for disabling
them. These LDO10-LDO12 regulators can be disabled only by I2C GPIO or
PWREN pin so the patch actually allows proper way of disabling them.

Additionally the GPIO control has two benefits:
 - It is faster than toggling it over I2C bus.
 - It allows disabling the regulator during suspend to RAM; The AP will
   enable it during resume.

This is an incompatible change.  It's OK to deprecate the old property
but it's bad form to just remove it.

I agree with Mark. Also, there is no need to make it generic.

I thought it would be good to make it consistent and to reduce the
number of bindings with same meaning on similar drivers. However I don't
mind skipping this patch.

Thanks for applying rest of patches.

How about making the other one use "s5m8767,pmic-ext-control-gpios"
compatible instead of introducing a new one?

We can have a IP specific name (first IP to have this property) common
