The Khadas VIM4 board features a different MCU variant compared to
previous VIM boards.
While it shares the same I2C-based communication model,
it differs in some ways:

  - A distinct register map with its own volatile/writeable register set
  - A fan control with 0–100 levels instead of the 0–3 levels previously
  - A fan power supply gated through a regulator

This series adds support for this new variant by:

  1. Refactoring the khadas-mcu MFD driver to use per-variant data
     structures (regmap config, cells, fan platform data),
     and adding the khadas,vim4-mcu compatible string.

  2. Extending the fan thermal driver to retrieve the fan register
     and maximum level from platform_data,
     and to optionally manage a power regulator for the fan supply.

  3. Adding the corresponding DTS node for the VIM4, wiring the MCU to
     the I2C AO_A bus and exposing it as a thermal cooling device.

From: Ronald Claveau <linux-kernel-dev@aliel.fr>

Some values change per variant, add the structure to manage it.

Add an enum khadas_mcu_type used as value to match.

Also introduce khadas_mcu_fan_pdata to pass fan register address, a
table named levels to get fan-supported levels on the MCU, and the number
of levels to the fan sub-driver, removing the hardcoded constants.

From: Ronald Claveau <linux-kernel-dev@aliel.fr>

Convert khadas_mcu_fan_cells[] and khadas_mcu_cells[] to use the
MFD_CELL_NAME() helper macro instead of open-coding the struct
mfd_cell initialisers. While at it, make both arrays const since
they are never modified after initialisation.

This is a pure cleanup with no functional change, done in
preparation for a subsequent patch which will need to attach
platform_data to the fan cell.

From: Ronald Claveau <linux-kernel-dev@aliel.fr>

Refactor probe() to use per-variant values
instead of hardcoded globals.

Add dedicated regmap configuration for the VIM4 MCU,
with its own volatile/writeable registers.

Introduce struct khadas_mcu_fan_pdata to pass the fan
control register and duty-cycle levels per variant.
VIM4 uses a different register and level set (0-100)
 declared as a list (0, 30, 40, 55, 75, 100) compared
 to previous boards (0-3).

Add a new compatible string "khadas,vim4-mcu".

From: Ronald Claveau <linux-kernel-dev@aliel.fr>

Replace the hardcoded MAX_LEVEL constant and fan register
with values read from platform_data (fan_reg, levels[] and nlevels),
as new MCUs need different values.

The cooling device's state is stored as an index into levels[],
and khadas_mcu_fan_set_level() writes levels[state] to fan_reg,
rather than writing the raw state value as before.

Optionally acquire and enable a "fan" regulator supply

so boards that gate fan power through a regulator are handled.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Medium] Passing child-specific configuration (fan registers and cooling levels) from the core MFD parent driver to the child violates MFD separation of concerns.
- [Medium] The patch claims to remove hardcoded constants and add VIM4 support but fails to include the corresponding C code modifications, leaving the feature entirely unimplemented.

Author: Ronald Claveau <linux-kernel-dev@aliel.fr>

mfd: khadas-mcu: Add per-variant configuration infrastructure and VIM4 support

This commit adds per-variant configuration structures and enums to manage
different MCU variants, specifically adding VIM4 support. It also introduces
a structure to pass fan configuration to the fan sub-driver to remove
hardcoded constants.

[Severity: Medium]
Will these new VIM4 specific registers exceed the unchanged max_register
(0x88) in the core driver's regmap configuration?

It looks like the C file modifications are missing from this patch, meaning
these new registers might be rejected by the regmap API if the configuration
is not updated to allow access up to 0x91.

[Severity: Medium]
Does passing child-specific configuration like fan registers and cooling
levels from the core MFD parent driver to the child violate MFD separation
of concerns?

The MFD subsystem guidelines suggest that the core MFD parent driver should
only handle shared core resources. Private resources consumed exclusively by
a single child driver should typically be initialized directly within that
child rather than passed from the parent.

[Severity: Medium]
The commit message mentions removing hardcoded constants and passing these
parameters to the fan sub-driver, but is this structure actually used
anywhere in the code?

The corresponding C file modifications appear to be missing from the commit,
which leaves this structure entirely unused.

[Severity: High]
Does this check unintentionally abort probe for generic Khadas MCU devices?

Because KHADAS_MCU_GENERIC is 0, the data field in the match table is
effectively a null pointer:

    { .compatible = "khadas,mcu", .data = (void *)KHADAS_MCU_GENERIC }

When khadas_mcu_probe() is called for a generic device, i2c_get_match_data()
returns NULL. The check for (!match) is met, and the driver unconditionally
returns -ENODEV. This causes a regression for all generic Khadas MCU boards.

[Severity: Medium]
Could this leak the regulator on probe error or driver unbind?

If devm_thermal_of_child_cooling_device_register() fails later in
khadas_mcu_fan_probe(), the function returns without calling
regulator_disable().

Additionally, there is no remove callback in khadas_mcu_fan_driver:

static struct platform_driver khadas_mcu_fan_driver = {
    .probe      = khadas_mcu_fan_probe,
    .shutdown   = khadas_mcu_fan_shutdown,
    .driver = { ...

This means the regulator is not cleanly disabled when the driver is unbound,
which could leave the reference leaked and prevent the regulator from ever
being powered down.

mfd: khadas-mcu: Add support for VIM4 MCU variant

This patch refactors the probe function to use per-variant values instead of
hardcoded globals. It adds dedicated regmap configuration, fan control register,
and duty-cycle levels for the VIM4 MCU variant. A new compatible string
"khadas,vim4-mcu" is introduced for this new device.

Does this code inadvertently break the probe for generic Khadas MCU boards
(VIM1/VIM2/VIM3)?

Because KHADAS_MCU_GENERIC evaluates to 0 in its enum, i2c_get_match_data() will
return a NULL pointer when matching "khadas,mcu" in khadas_mcu_probe() in
drivers/mfd/khadas-mcu.c. This will cause the check here to evaluate to true and
unconditionally abort the probe with -ENODEV.

thermal: khadas-mcu-fan: Add fan config from platform data Add regulator support

This commit updates the khadas-mcu-fan driver to read fan configuration
(register and levels) from platform data instead of using hardcoded values.
The cooling device's state is stored as an index into levels[]. It also
optionally acquires and enables a "fan" regulator supply during probe and
resume.

[Severity: Medium]
Since this function no longer updates ctx->level and now takes a raw register
value instead of a state index, does this break khadas_mcu_fan_suspend() and
khadas_mcu_fan_shutdown()?

Both functions still call khadas_mcu_fan_set_level(ctx, 0), which now writes a
raw 0 to the hardware instead of ctx->levels[0]. Additionally, the state-saving
logic in suspend is now dead code since khadas_mcu_fan_set_level() no longer
mutates ctx->level.

[Severity: High]
Does devm_regulator_get() incorrectly attach the devres release action to
the parent device instead of the child device?

If the child driver is unbound or probe defers repeatedly, the memory and
regulator handle could be permanently leaked on the parent device's devres
list. Should this use dev instead of dev->parent?

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does using dev->parent for the thermal
cooling device devres allocation mean the cooling device will outlive the
child device?

If the child driver is unbound via sysfs, ctx is freed, but the cooling
device remains active on the parent. Could reading the cooling device state
via sysfs then cause a use-after-free by dereferencing the freed ctx pointer?

If devm_thermal_of_child_cooling_device_register() fails here, does the
probe function return without disabling the manually enabled regulator?

[Severity: High]
If khadas_mcu_fan_set_level() fails here and returns an error to the PM core,
does the regulator remain permanently enabled?

Additionally, it appears the driver is missing a .remove callback in the
platform_driver definition to symmetrically disable the regulator on unbind.
Could this lead to a leak of the regulator enable count?

[Severity: High]
Does enabling this fan node expose a regulator leak in the khadas-mcu-fan
driver?

When the driver probes, it appears to attach the regulator resource
lifecycle to the parent device rather than the child:

drivers/thermal/khadas_mcu_fan.c:khadas_mcu_fan_probe() {
    ...
    ctx->power = devm_regulator_get(dev->parent, "fan");
    ...
}

If devm_thermal_of_child_cooling_device_register() fails, the probe
function returns without calling regulator_disable():

drivers/thermal/khadas_mcu_fan.c:khadas_mcu_fan_probe() {
    ...
    return ret;
}

Furthermore, the driver struct lacks a .remove callback entirely:

drivers/thermal/khadas_mcu_fan.c:
static struct platform_driver khadas_mcu_fan_driver = {
    .probe      = khadas_mcu_fan_probe,
    .shutdown   = khadas_mcu_fan_shutdown,
    .driver = {
        .name       = "khadas-mcu-fan-ctrl",
        .pm         = &khadas_mcu_fan_pm,
    },
    .id_table   = khadas_mcu_fan_id_table,
};

Since devres is attached to dev->parent, the driver core will not
automatically clean up the regulator when the child device probe fails or
when the child driver is unbound. 

Will this cause a monotonically increasing enable count and memory leak
on the parent device during unbind/rebind cycles?
