The boolean properties usually don't work well for RTCs because people usually want to keep any previous configuration that may have been done at the factory or in the bootloader so I would use: nxp,quartz_load_fF and this would be either 7000 or 12500.We had is implmented like this (using pF) in the beginning but then went for the simpler property. Will add a fF property as you suggest and avoid breaking the existing drivers. We will check a few of the boards to see if the current configuration of the pcf8523 driver looks wrong, and if so we will print the warnings as suggested. I think the above covers feedback on all patches. And thanks for the feedback!
Hint: look at the cubox-i and the hummingboard schematics. I'm definitely not an analog expert but the two capacitors on the cubox-i are making me think that the setting should be different from the hummingboard. -- Alexandre Belloni, Bootlin Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering https://bootlin.com
