The AST2600 I2C controller is a new hardware design compared to the I2C controllers in previous ASPEED SoCs (e.g., AST2400, AST2500). It introduces new features such as: - A redesigned register layout - Separation between controller and target mode registers - Transfer mode selection (byte, buffer, DMA) - Support for a shared global register block for configuration Due to these fundamental differences, maintaining a separate devicetree binding file for AST2600 helps to clearly distinguish the hardware capabilities and configuration options from the older controllers.

A different dependency should be noted in *this* patch. If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to date: pip3 install dtschema --upgrade Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
