 Patch series introducing support for ROHM BD70528 PMIC
-
-Please note that patch 1 breaks compilation without patches 2 and 3
 
 ROHM BD70528 is a programmable Power Management IC for battery
 powered 'ultra low power' systems like the pre-announced NXP
-i.MX7 ULP. This patch series introduces support for the PMIC.
-
-I send this a RFC now as I would like to receive comments from
-Lee, Mark and Stephen regarding splitting the existing
-include/linux/mfd/bd718x7.h into ROHM generic and chip specific
-portions. Benefit is that for example the clk sub-driver does
-not need to be aware of chip specific structure(s) (struct
-bd718x7 and struct bd70528) as it only needs to derefernce the
-generic struct rohm_regmap_dev. Thus same clk subdriver can
-support both the bd718x7 and bd70528 as long as MFD driver
-data has this generic structure in the beginning of allocated
-data. But knowing the bd718x7 driver is already in upstream,
-it might be good if this change went through single tree, right?
+i.MX7 ULP. This patch series introduces support for the PMIC. Please
+note that this driver only supports HW setup where PMIC is connected
+to I2C on A7 core. The other scenario is to use M4 as a power manager
+and connect pmic to M4. On such setups the A7 can only access pmic
+via M4 core using RPMSG virtio. Such setup depends on RPMSG
+implementation on M4 core and is currently not supported by this
+patch series.

 from standby state. Wake irq's can be armed to wake up system up

-Currently only MFD core, clk, RTC, regulator and GPIO portions are

-Changelog v4:
+The power-supply patch included in series is only poorly tested as I

+Changelog v10:
+- Exported locking functions for RTC lock and as a result dropped hid
+  the struct bd70528 from sub-devices who no longer needed it.
+- removed linux/gpio.h header from GPIO driver.

+Changelog v9: Changes suggested by Lee Jones
+- MFD, DT-binding, RTC and WDT changed
+- DT-bindings: Spelling fixes
+- RTC and WDT: Use exported function instead of function pointer for WDT
+  arming/disarming
+- MFD: Export WDT arming/disarming function instead of providing a
+  pointer to it.
+- Various styling fixes.
+
+Changelog v8:
+- regulators(*), wdt, gpio, rtc, mfd(*) and dt-bindings unchanged.
+  (*)Patches 1-3 squashed to not break bisecting.
+
+- removed unnecessary newline from clk
+- fixed possible use of uninitialized 'reg' from power-supply.
+  Found by 0-day tests and reported by Dan Carpenter.
+
+Changelog v7:
+Only patch 2 changed.
+- Avoid out-of-array-bounds access at regulator probe if unsupported
+  chip type is passed to bd718x7 regulator driver.
+
+Changelog v6:
+Only patch 10 changed.
+- styling fixes pointed by Gunter Roeck
+- dropped RFC tag
+
+Changelog v5 (RFC):
+Only patch 7 changed.
+- Explained why lock is not needed at GPIO value getting
+- removed ampersands from function pointer assignments.
