Subject: [PATCH v7 0/4] Exynos SROMc configuration and Ethernet support for SMDK5410

This patch extends Exynos SROM controller driver with ability to configure
controller outputs and enables SMSC9115 Ethernet chip on SMDK5410 board,
which is connected via SROMc bank #3.

With this patchset, support for the whole existing SMDK range can be added.
Actually, only bank number is different.

This patchset also depends on Exynos 5410 pinctrl support, introduced by
patches 0003 and 0004 from this set:
[PATCH v4 0/5] ARM: EXYNOS: ODROID-XU DT and LEDs
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-March/330862.html

Pinctrl support is necessary in order to correctly configure
multifunctional pins of the Exynos chip.

v6 => v7:
- Fixed stupid error in Tacc description in the documentation

v5 => v6:
- Even more improvements to the documentation, fixed some errors and typos.
- Separated adding bus ranges from generic SROMc support
- Some stuff renamed for even better code readability
- Stylistic cleanups in the DTS (everything in alphabetic order, use named
constant name for interrupt config byte)

v4 => v5:
- Some cosmetic changes in the dtsi ("compatible" goes first)
- Use correctly specified ranges for the SROMc node
- Reuse existing properties where possible ("reg" for bank# and
"reg-io-width" for data width)
- Separated page-mode property from timings array
- More improvements to the documentation

v3 => v4:
- Devices are now added as subnodes, with additional properties. This allows
to cleary specify dependency. If configuration fails, error will be reported
and child devices will not be probed.
- These additional properties now have "samsung,srom-XXX" format
- Fixed code style, now better understood.

v2 => v3:
- Fixed up SROMc region size in the device tree
- Reordered patches, documentation goes first now

v1 => v2:
- Fixed some typos and bad labels in device tree
- Improved documentation

Subject: [PATCH v7 1/4] Documentation: dt-bindings: Describe SROMc configuration

Add documentation for new subnode properties, allowing bank configuration.
Based on u-boot implementation, but heavily reworked.

Also, fix size of SROMc mapping in the example.

Since the driver now does more than suspend-resume support, dependency on

We had a discussion with Krzysztof about it, he agreed with this form of the property.
My concern was that it's just too much typing, and makes little sense because these
settings always go together. If register layout changes, or parameter set changes in
incompatible way, then it's another device, not exynos-srom anymore.
So would you agree with that, or is your position strong?

I'm thinking for a new version of the controller which could add (or
remove) new timing parameters, but then I guess you can interpret the
field differently based on the compatible string. Anyway, your problem
to deal with.

Actually I also preferred properties per one timing... but finally
agreed on simpler approach.

Adding new parameters to the array is still possible (because the order
matters) and removal as well (by ignoring some indices). All ARMv7
Exynos SoCs have exactly the same registers for SROM controller
(Exynos3250, Exynos4, Exynos5). On newer Exynos ARMv8 (Exynos5433 and
Exynos7420) I don't know because it is not documented.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Of course, my thought is that if compatible string is different,
then it's already a different device. And of course it would have different parameters.
So, OK, i'll post new version with fixed documentation today.
