Subject: I asked to drop "binding" and not add "support for". "Support for" makes little sense in terms of binding. How binding can support anything? This is the "ST TSC1641 power monitor" not support.Krzysztof, Thanks for feedback, will fix this and will create following patch versions in new threads.quoted

You need proper interrupts property and then its flag define the type of interrupt.This controls a bit written into device register. I omitted interrupt property after looking at existing power monitor bindings, especially hwmon/ti,ina2xx.yaml. INA226 has very similar bit controlling alert pin polarity and binding doesn't define alert pin as interrupt. Overall, I didn't find many power monitor bindings defining alert pins as interrupts.
On INA2xx that's SMBUS Alert. Is this the case here as well? Best regards, Krzysztof
