I'd feel rather uncomfortable accepting a binding that we already believe to be insufficient to describe the hardware. What do you expect to change?Related bindings seem incomplete. As such, the PAMU binding (pamu.txt) covers incompletely a dynamic LIODN assignment/programming model. The current driver uses a static assignment scheme that the binding needs to include. I also suspect that once the driver starts supporting the dynamic LIODN assignment/programming we might find some wrinklesOk. Given that the driver doesn't seem to be in mainline (per a quick grep), just put "DO NOT MERGE" or something like that in the commit message. Once this is merged you're going to need to support it.
We have a driver and once the bindings get accepted we'll (update the driver as needed and) post the code Cheers,
