[PATCH 1/2][v5] dt-bindings: mtd-physmap: Add endianness supports

From: Prabhakar Kushwaha <hidden>
Date: 2018-02-28 07:33:34
Also in: linux-devicetree
Subsystem: memory technology devices (mtd), open firmware and flattened device tree bindings, the rest · Maintainers: Miquel Raynal, Richard Weinberger, Vignesh Raghavendra, Rob Herring, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Conor Dooley, Linus Torvalds

Connection between flash and controller is not necessary to be always
of same type. It may varies from platform to platform.

Adding endianness (optional) property to provide connection type
information.
