From: Shannon Zhao <redacted> Since PL061 currently only supports AMBA driver, to support using GPIO PL061 by DT or ACPI, it needs to add support for platform driver. A DT binding is provided with this patch, ACPI support is added in a separate one. Signed-off-by: Shannon Zhao <redacted> Signed-off-by: Shannon Zhao <redacted>
I already stated in 0/2 what the problem is with this, and it's obviously adding a huge codechunk, very similar to the AMBA probe path. We need to investigate if ACPI can just spawn AMBA/PrimeCell type devices instead. Yours, Linus Walleij
