Now GPIOD has support for both pdata systems and for non-standard DT
bindings the Arizona reset GPIO can be converted to use it.

Changes since v2:
- Kept null check in arizona_enable_reset, although
gpiod_set_value_cansleep does its own null check it will also issue
a fat WARN we don't want if gpiolib is not built in.
- Added a check for ENOSYS in arizona_of_get_core_pdata, just to
silence the extra error that would be printed here if gpiolib is not
built in.
Thanks,
Charles

I haven't seen a switch statement used in the error handling path

You don't need the else.

I know it doesn't have much to do with this patch, but it's probably
better to use a Kerneldoc header for this struct.

There are a fair few of them "grep -rI "switch (ret)" | wc -l" ==
205. Although to be fair that has rarely been an argument in
somethings favour.

I would guess most of the time yes, but I would rather not assume
that. I can redo this as if's if you prefer it that way? The if is
slightly less lines although I do think the switch is much
clearer as to intent.

Indeed I would agree that would be better, not sure what the
commenting style there is about. I should be able to find time to
make a patch for this soon, but seems unrelated to this series.

This should be:
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(arizona->pdata.reset, 1);
as here you want to put the reset GPIO into its active state.
Assuming that in the dts this GPIO is defined as GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW, then
the command should put it to logic level 0 as done originally.

This should be:
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(arizona->pdata.reset, 0);
as here you want to put the reset GPIO into its inactive state.

Hmm... this raises a rather good point that I hadn't considered.
This driver is used in a lot of shipping devices and the old
style GPIO calls didn't take the activeness of the GPIO into
account just blindly setting the value you asked for. However the
new style calls do take this into account.
The trouble is I guess we don't know whether most users bothered
to set GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW or not. So it is very hard to say here if
we are about to breaking a lot of existing device trees here.
I guess probably the safest approach is to use
gpiod_set_raw_value_cansleep here?
Thanks,
Charles

Yes, probably needed to avoid breakage of existing systems.

I didn't say "it has never been done", just that I hadn't seen it.
Besides, 205 uses is a very small amount in kernel code:
`git grep "if (ret" | wc -l` == 74710

I don't know enough about the API to see why -ENOENT and -ENOSYS do
not deserve error messages.
What do the other users of the API do?

ENOENT means the property was not found, and ENOSYS means that
there is no GPIOLIB built into the kernel.
In hindsight really I think this did deserve a comment. Basically
what is going on here, is we are supporting both the old and the
new binding, this is the code that looks for the old binding. If
we don't find anything then we don't want to print a message now
because we will print a message when we later check for the newer
binding. However if the binding is present but somehow invalid
then we would like to print the error. The newer binding read
later won't detect if the older binding is present and corrupt.

Alas this looks like one of the first users.
