I think I do as well.

No mention of this bus node in the above documentation.I was hesitant documenting it since I am not sure if we really need it in a generic case? It does make sense in my specific case. But what would it look like if we could maintain CS in software. Do you then have a bus node per CS? I am guessing not. Is it enough to document it in my "example brief"?
I see what you mean. May be it is fine to document with the examples below how child devices should be populated. You should also state that currently the GMI only supports one child device currently for the chip-select that is being used. Cheers Jon -- nvpublic
