Bindings should describe hardware, not drivers. What precisely does this binding describe?
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should contain "syscon-reboot"
+- regmap: this is phandle to the register map node
+- offset: offset in the register map for the reboot register
+- mask: the reset value written to the reboot register
+
+Examples:
+
+reboot {
+ compatible = "syscon-reboot";
+ regmap = <®mapnode>;
+ offset = <0x0>;
+ mask = <0x1>;
+};Access size? Endianness? Why can we not have a binding for the register bank this exists in, and have that pass on the appropriate details to a syscon-reboot driver? That way we can change the way we poke things without requiring changes to bindings or dts. Thanks, Mark.
