[PATCH] arm64: dts: qcom: milos-fairphone-fp6: Add Hall Effect sensor

[Luca Weiss]

Add a node for the Hall Effect sensor, used to detect whether the Flip
Cover is closed or not.

The sensor is powered through vreg_l10b, so let's put a
regulator-always-on on that to make sure the sensor gets power.

It would be nice to add pinctrl for it too.

Is there anything else on L10B? Can we turn it off if the hall sensor
is e.g. user-disabled?

It's the voltage source for pull-up of sensor I2C bus (so
ADSP-managed?), DVDD for amplifiers and VDD for a most sensors like
the gyro.

So realistically, it'll probably be (nearly) always on anyways. And I
don't want to shave another yak by adding vdd support to gpio-keys...

That's okay

Let's configure the gpio70 in v2 like Dmitry pointed out

Why? If it is exactly what happens on the board: the device producing
GPIO events _is_ powered via a vdd. Added Input maintainer / list to cc.

Yes, the hall sensor which is connected to the GPIO on the SoC, has an
extra VDD input which needs to be on in order for the Hall-effect sensor
to be on.

See page 133 "HALL" in the center of the page
https://www.fairphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Fairphone-Gen.-6_-Information-on-how-to-repair-dispose-of-and-recycle-EN-NL-FR-DE.pdf

The IC is OCH166AEV4AD where VDD is (as expected) "Power Supply Input":

If we add regulator support to gpio-keys do we expect it to be
per-gpio/per-key? Or we'd recommend splitting into several instances of
gpio-keys so that there is on set of supplies per gpio-keys device?

In my opinion it would fit in this case in the event-hall-sensor node,
that next to gpios = <&tlmm 70 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW> we get a
vdd-supply = <&vreg_l10b>.
