Yeah this might happen though because we've assigned the of_node pointer to the tsens device before we register it on the platform bus. The other way to pass that data down from gcc to tsens would be to not have an of_node assigned to the tsens device, and check for that case in the tsens driver. If there isn't an of_node, then we look at the parent device's of_node to figure out which gcc it is (if this even matters) and parse DT properties.Parsing DT properties from parent (in the tsens driver) is fine, but the nvmem apis still expect an of_node for the tsens device and hence fail.So pass the parent device to the nvmem APIs? Or adjust the nvmem APIs to look for a parent of_node if there isn't an of_node for the device being passed? Or make the nvmem APIs work without using DT, and copy over the nvmem information from the gcc node to the virtual tsens child device?Srini, you being the nvmem maintainer, any thoughts?
passing the parent device to nvmem APIs seems the cleanest to me, without having to change much with the nvmem APIs itself. -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation
