From: Beomho Seo <redacted> This patch adds device driver of max77843 charger. This driver provide initialize each charging mode(e.g. fast charge, top-off mode and constant charging mode so on.). Additionally, control charging paramters to use i2c interface. Cc: Sebastian Reichel <sre@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Beomho Seo <redacted>Reviewed-By: Sebastian Reichel <sre@kernel.org> I can't take it as is, since it depends on the private header file of PATCHv1. -- SebastianThis patch reviewed by Sebastian. Could you Please merge that your git tree ?Hi, ... and again we are adding a new driver for very similar chipset to already supported. I looked at spec and the charger's registers are almost the same as for max77693. Their layout and addresses are the same. I see some minor differences, probably the most important would be different values current (fast-charge, top-off). But still 90% of registers are the same... Do we really have to add new driver?

Hi, Thank you for your comment. As you say, both chip set are similar. But new driver need for support max77843. It is support different below - Provide Battery presence information. - Can OTG FET control. - Bigger Fast charge current, Top Off current Threshold selection. - Various and bigger OTG current limitation. - Bigger primary charger termination voltage setting. - Different maximum input current limit selection(Different step). I respect your opinion but I think add new driver better. Best regards, Beomho Seo
