PCF85053 is i2c based RTC which supports timer and calendar
functionality.
Features supported:
1. Read/Write time
2. Get/Set Alarm
3. Wakeup Source
4. Generate up to 32768Hz clock output
5. Primary/Secondary i2c bus

V3 -> V4: - Handle multi-host ownership explicitly using primary/secondary bus hadling.
- Probe no longer changes any CTRL bits unconditionally and do not clear ST/AF/OF
avoiding lost interrupts or silent mode changes.
- Read/Set time & alarm now respect HF(12/24h) and DM(BCD/BIN) converting
hour fields correctly for all combinations.
- Minor changes: drop noisy warnings, tidy error paths/comments.
V2 -> V3: Add MAINTAINERS file changes to this patch
V1 -> V2: no changes

Aren't case 1 and case 2 here redundant? All you need to do is block
interface == secondary when nxp,write-access is present, which your case
3 should be able to be modified to do via
if:
properties:
nxp,interface:
const: secondary
then:
properties:
nxp,write-access: false
I think your description for nxp,write-access gets the point across
about when it can be used, and the additional commentary is not really
helpful.

Maybe a silly question, but if you have a system that wants to have two
pairs of RTCs, how would you determine which primary a secondary belongs
to? I notice you have no link between these devices in dt so I am
curious. Would it be better to eschew nxp,interface and have a phandle
from the secondary to the primary?
I don't know anything about your use case or features, so maybe knowing
the relationship just is not relevant at all, or it can be determined at
runtime.
Cheers,
Conor.

Thanks for reviewing the patch.
We kept both cases: primary with write-access and primary without write-access, because the hardware
supports three different ways it can be used, and we want to show that clearly in the bindings:
Primary with nxp,write-access: primary host can write to the device.
Primary without nxp,write-access - primary host is read-only, and the secondary host can write.
Secondary - default role, with write access; when no primary host is claiming it.
Even though both case 1 and 2 use nxp,interface = "primary", they behave differently.
Keeping both cases separate makes it easier to understand whether Primary host can write or not.

This device can connect to two independent hosts via separate I²C buses.
Each host sees the same hardware instance through its own I²C address. The nxp,interface
property simply declares the host's role, so the driver knows whether to attempt write
access or not.

Just explain it properly in the property description, creating
if/then/else stuff with additional commentary like this makes it more,
rather than less, confusing.

That doesn't really answer what I was looking for. Is knowing the
relationships either unimportant or determinable at runtime?

Understood - we'll simplify the schema by keeping only the if/then constraint and move the explanation
of the valid configurations into the property descriptions for nxp,interface and nxp,write-access rather than
in comments.

Primary and secondary are independent hosts connected to separate I²C buses,
so, no relationship needs to be described between them.
