Hi,

Thanks for the review.

NVEC driver was reimplemented to use tegra i2c. Use common i2c bindings

The changes to this file make more sense either as a standalone patch
1/4, or as part of the driver changes.

This change breaks ABI.

Instead of modifying the definition of the existing compatible value, I
think you should introduce a new compatible value to describe the
external NVEC chip.
I changed compatible value to nvec-slave in v2.

This doesn't feel correct. There's nothing here to indicate that this
child device is a slave that is implemented by the host SoC rather than
something external attached to the I2C bus.

Perhaps you can get away with this, since the driver for nvidia,nvec
only calls I2C APIs suitable for internal slaves rather than external
slaves? Even so though, I think the distinction needs to be clearly
marked in the DT so that any generic code outside the NVEC driver that
parses the DT can determine the difference.

I would recommend the I2C controller having #address-cells=<2> with cell
0 being 0==master,1==slave, cell 1 being the I2C address. The I2C driver
would need to support #address-cells=<1> for backwards-compatibility.
Driver (nvec in this case) can decide what mode should it use according 
to compatible value. Is it not enough ?

The order is typically compatible, reg, other properties.
Ok, thanks.
