Would it not be better to just omit this if it doesn't do anything and doesn't have any semantics defined?quoted
I was specifically asked to include this, which is why it appeared in v2, not the first version. I forget who it was who asked for it, maybe Arnd Bergmann? I can dig through my email archive if you want to know.If you're going to include it you should define some sematics for it. You could define an optional "yohNg1ai" property too...
Agreed. I'm rather sure I did not ask for an unused property to be documented. However, the documentation should definitely match the example and the what kinds of properties are used in the device tree. If the device has an interrupt that is not used by Linux, I would document what the interrupt is for. Arnd
