+- #gpio-cells: Should be two. + - first cell is the pin number + - second cell is used to specify optional parameters (unused)Why is there an unused cell? Why not just make this a single cell if the binding defines no valid parameters?
I don't get this either. The only reason would be that this cell should contain flags (such as open collector) the code for using it being inplemented later. If the controller is too primitive to use such flags it should be onecell. Yours, Linus Walleij
