Hi Bob,

thanks for reviewing.

This driver provides PS/2 serio bus support by implementing bit 
banging
with the GPIO API. The GPIO pins, data and clock, can be configured 
with
a node in the device tree or by generic device properties (GDP).

Writing to a device is supported as well, though it is possible 
timings
can not be halt as they are tough and difficult to reach with bit 
banging.
Therefore it can be configured (also in DT and GDP) whether the serio
write function should be available for clients.

This driver is for development purposes and not recommended for 
productive
use. However, this driver can be useful e.g. when no USB port is 
available
or using old peripherals is desired as PS/2 controller chips getting 
rare.

This driver was tested on RPI1 and on Hikey960 and it worked well 
together
with the atkbd and psmouse driver.

v2: Removed one verbose print statement, changed another one to 
dev_dbg.
v3: - fixed compiler warning on blackfin
    - depends on GPIOLIB
    - clarify documentation
v4: - fixed concurrent calls to ps2_gpio_write (serio->write)
    - use gpiod API
    - use generic device properties
    - request irq separately, do not use gpiod_to_irq
    - abort when gpio is connected via slow bus
    - Fixed a bug where PS2_CMD_RESEND is always send after tx failed 
once.
      The makes the write functionallity work better, tough timing is 
still
      critical.
    - disable irq initially until ps2_gpip_open (serio->open) is 
called
v5: Checked again why timings are that hard to reach while in tx mode 
and
    discovered that there is an extra clock pulse between stop bit 
sent from
    host and acknowledgement from device. By just skipping this clock 
pulse
    tx works fine now, though it still happens sometimes that the 
timing can
    not be reached of course.
v6: - fixed typos
    - use of_match_ptr
v7: remove unnecessary barriers

Sorry for resending, forgot der version tag in the subject.

It's preferred to split bindings to separate patch.
Together with Documentation/gpio/drivers-on-gpio.txt or would you prefer 
to have
a separate patch for this as well?

Bindings don't describe drivers.
Will fix.

I will do.
