[PATCH] arm64: dts: rockchip: add attiny_rst_gate to Ringneck

[Jakob Unterwurzacher]

Ringneck v1.4 can contain (placement option) an on-board ATtiny
microcontroller instead of an STM32. In normal operation, this
is transparent to the software, as both microcontrollers emulate
the same ICs (amc6821 and isl1208).

For flashing the ATtiny, the SWITCH_REG1 regulator of the board's PMIC is
used to enable the ATtiny UPDI debug interface. If the STM32 is placed, or if
we are running on an older Ringneck revision, SWITCH_REG1 is not connected
and has no effect.

Add attiny-updi-gate-regulator so userspace can control it via sysfs:

  echo enabled > /sys/devices/platform/attiny-updi-gate-regulator/state

CONFIG_REGULATOR_USERSPACE_CONSUMER needs to be enabled for this to 
work. Just putting this here as I had forgotten and was wondering why 
this sysfs file wasn't available to me :)

I finally have access to some HW to test this, and therefore can give my:

According to the schematics, vcc8 is routed to SWITCH_REG2 and not 
SWITCH_REG1, which is fed vcc9. Even more so, vcc8 on the PMIC isn't 
actually routed.

I therefore think we can simply remove this line here.

@Jakob, do you agree? Can you send a v2 if so?

Cheers,
Quentin

This is a candidate for backporting to stable branches as well I assume, 
@Heiko?

That is more on the darker side of gray here.

Looking at the stable-kernel-rules [0] the criteria is
  "It must either fix a real bug that bothers people or just add a device ID"

This change instead is adding a new feature to allow said flashing from a
running system.

sidenote: please don't post new versions as replies to previous versions,
as that confuses tooling a lot.

This does mean that the new version of the device won't work as well 
with an older kernel though.

I thought the rules for DT backporting were a bit more permissive than 
for drivers. Maybe because most of the DT patches I posted were actual 
fixes :)

Up to you!

Quentin

"new version of the device" being the key here ;-) .

You also would not expect a new board dts or a new board variant to be
added to stable-kernels.
