-* System Controller Registers R/W driver
-
-System controller node represents a register region containing a set
-of miscellaneous registers. The registers are not cohesive enough to
-represent as any specific type of device. The typical use-case is for
-some other node's driver, or platform-specific code, to acquire a
-reference to the syscon node (e.g. by phandle, node path, or search
-using a specific compatible value), interrogate the node (or associated
-OS driver) to determine the location of the registers, and access the
-registers directly.
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible: Should contain "syscon".
-- reg: the register region can be accessed from syscon
-
-Optional property:
-- reg-io-width: the size (in bytes) of the IO accesses that should be
- performed on the device.
-- hwlocks: reference to a phandle of a hardware spinlock provider node.
-
-Examples:
-gpr: iomuxc-gpr@20e0000 {
- compatible = "fsl,imx6q-iomuxc-gpr", "syscon";
- reg = <0x020e0000 0x38>;
- hwlocks = <&hwlock1 1>;
-};
-
-hwlock1: hwspinlock@40500000 {
- ...
- reg = <0x40500000 0x1000>;
- #hwlock-cells = <1>;
-};
