Driver for BCM2835 SoC. This gives the basic functionality of
setting/clearing the output.

For consistency, that might be better as BCM2835_GPIO_COUNT, but not a
big deal.

It looks like the name bcm2835_gpio.c would be more consistent with
existing drivers, but not a big deal.

Presumably gpio==0 is a valid GPIO, so that should be >= not >. It'd be
simpler to write it as:

return gpio < BCM2835_NUM_GPIOS;

Why not just return gpio_is_valid_(gpio) directly?

Even if BCM2835_GPIO_OUTPUT==0, it seems better to | it in here for
documentation purposes, so add:

	val |= (BCM2835_GPIO_INPUT << BCM2835_GPIO_FSEL_SHIFT(gpio));

Otherwise, there's not much point creating the #define BCM2835_GPIO_INPUT.

This (setting the direction) should happen after the following to set
the value:

That way, when the GPIO is set to output, the correct value will
immediately be driven onto the GPIO, so a glitch may be avoided.

Shouldn't that be BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_SHIFT not BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_MASK?

Linux kernel follows this naming, to be exact, it should've been 
gpio-bcm2835.c. Having a thought in mind that one day the namings would 
be made consistent with the kernel. That is the reason for this naming, 
but isn't a big deal to change it.

Agree for all the above. Will get reflected in the v3.

> Shouldn't that be BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_SHIFT not BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_MASK?

If you'd like to have naming consistency FSEL_SHIFT/COMMON_SHIFT, then 
it shall be COMMON_SHIFT.

But it doesn't do any shifting like the FSEL_SHIFT, rather it does only 
masking of bits. So, it makes more sense for me to name it as MASK and 
not SHIFT.

One more comment on the patch subject; it probably should be "gpio:
bcm2835:" not "bcm:" since (a) it's in the GPIO directory and (b) the
GPIO module is specifically for a BCM2835, and probably doesn't apply to
any/all Broadcom devices.

Hmmm. It seems better to be internally consistent with U-Boot rather
than keeping (onyl part of) U-Boot consistent with the kernel...

The full quote you're replying to was:

>> +int gpio_get_value(unsigned gpio)
> 
>> +	return (val >> BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_MASK(gpio)) & 0x1;
> 
> Shouldn't that be BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_SHIFT not BCM2835_GPIO_COMMON_MASK?

... so that macro is being used as a shift not as a mask.
