2015-08-07	mfd: vexpress: Add parentheses around bridge->ops->regmap_init call	Nicolas Boichat	1	-1/+1
	regmap_init(...) is a macro since commit "regmap: Use different lockdep class for each regmap init call". That same name is used as a function pointer: prevent its expansion by adding parentheses around the function pointer.

2014-05-26	ARM: vexpress: refine dependencies for new code	Arnd Bergmann	1	-1/+1
	The versatile express changes for 3.16 introduced a number of build regressions for randconfig kernels by not tracking dependencies between the components right. This patch tries to rectify that: * the mach-vexpress code cannot link without the syscfg driver, which in turn needs MFD_VEXPRESS_SYSREG * various drivers call devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config(), which has to be exported so it can be used by loadable modules * the configuration bus uses OF DT helper functions that are not available to platforms disable CONFIG_OF * The sysreg driver exports GPIOs through gpiolib, which can be disabled on some platforms. * The clocksource code cannot be built on platforms that don't use modern timekeeping but rely on gettimeoffset.

2014-05-15	mfd: vexpress: Convert custom func API to regmap	Pawel Moll	1	-0/+202
	Components of the Versatile Express platform (configuration microcontrollers on motherboard and daughterboards in particular) talk to each other over a custom configuration bus. They provide miscellaneous functions (from clock generator control to energy sensors) which are represented as platform devices (and Device Tree nodes). The transactions on the bus can be generated by different "bridges" in the system, some of which are universal for the whole platform (for the price of high transfer latencies), others restricted to a subsystem (but much faster). Until now drivers for such functions were using custom "func" API, which is being replaced in this patch by regmap calls. This required: * a rework (and move to drivers/bus directory, as suggested by Samuel and Arnd) of the config bus core, which is much simpler now and uses device model infrastructure (class) to keep track of the bridges; non-DT case (soon to be retired anyway) is simply covered by a special device registration function * the new config-bus driver also takes over device population, so there is no need for special matching table for of_platform_populate nor "simple-bus" hack in the arm64 model dtsi file (relevant bindings documentation has been updated); this allows all the vexpress devices fit into normal device model, making it possible to remove plenty of early inits and other hacks in the near future * adaptation of the syscfg bridge implementation in the sysreg driver, again making it much simpler; there is a special case of the "energy" function spanning two registers, where they should be both defined in the tree now, but backward compatibility is maintained in the code * modification of the relevant drivers: * hwmon - just a straight-forward API change * power/reset driver - API change * regulator - API change plus error handling simplification * osc clock driver - this one required larger rework in order to turn in into a standard platform driver Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com> Acked-by: Mark Brown <broonie@linaro.org> Acked-by: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org> Acked-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Acked-by: Mike Turquette <mturquette@linaro.org>
