This converts the GPIO-based I2C-driver to using GPIO descriptors instead of the old global numberspace-based GPIO interface. We: - Convert the driver to unconditionally grab two GPIOs from the device by index 0 (SDA) and 1 (SCL) which will work fine with device tree and descriptor tables. The existing device trees will continue to work just like before, but without any roundtrip through the global numberspace.FYI, I recently posted a series to deprecate (at least for DT) this error prone indexing, in favor of using named GPIOs: [PATCH/RFC 0/3] i2c: gpio: Add support for named gpios in DT http://www.spinics.net/lists/devicetree/msg191936.html
Nice. If Wolfram likes this series, I volunteer to rebase your patch (oh well rewrite patch 2 from scratch, haha) on top of it as well so he can apply the whole thing. They will need some adjustments, I volunteer to do them. Will provide feedback in the patches. Yours. Linus Walleij
