Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] dt-bindings: pfuze100: add optional disable switch-regulators binding
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2018 14:50:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180713125002.24331-2-m.felsch@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180713125002.24331-1-m.felsch@pengutronix.de>
This binding is used to keep the backward compatibility with the current
dtb's [1]. The binding informs the driver that the unused switch regulators
can be disabled.
If it is not specified, the driver doesn't disable the switch regulators.
[1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10490381/
Signed-off-by: Marco Felsch <m.felsch@pengutronix.de>

Changes in V2:
- add more information about the binding
- rename binding and add vendor prefix

+ mark them explicit as "regulator-always-on". On new dtbs this property should
+ always be present.
