[PATCH 0/2] dt-bindings: rtc: Convert to DT schema

[Eduard Bostina]

This series converts the Texas Instruments Palmas RTC bindings to DT schema
and resolves a node name compliance issue.

Patch 1 converts the text binding to DT schema.

Patch 2 updates the tps659038_rtc nodes across the AM57xx device trees 
to use the generic 'rtc' node name.

[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: rtc: Convert TI Palmas RTC to DT schema

[Eduard Bostina]

Convert the Texas Instruments Palmas RTC controller bindings
to DT schema.

As part of the conversion, declare 'wakeup-source: true'.
This documents the Palmas PMIC's capability to wake the system.

It would be great to convert to the genric proeprty which is
aux-voltage-chargeable from rtc.yaml

I guess we could make trickle-resistor-ohms fit or get a new generic
property for this.

Would be nice, but this is an existing binding on old h/w. We're stuck 
with it.

[PATCH 2/2] ARM: dts: ti: omap: Fix Palmas RTC node names

[Eduard Bostina]

The core RTC Device Tree schema expects RTC nodes to be named generically
('rtc' or 'rtc@...').

Update the tps659038_rtc nodes across the AM57xx device trees to use
the generic 'rtc' node name to resolve dtbs_check warnings.
