Subject: [PATCH v2] watchdog: ebc-c384_wdt: Migrate to the regmap API

The regmap API supports IO port accessors so we can take advantage of
regmap abstractions rather than handling access to the device registers
directly in the driver.

Suggested-by: Andy Shevchenko <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: William Breathitt Gray <[email protected]>
---
Changes in v2:
- Utilize watchdog_set_drvdata() and watchdog_get_drvdata()
- Map watchdog control registers based on offset 0x1 and adjust regmap
configurations accordingly; offset 0x0 is unused in this driver so we
should avoid unnecessary exposure of it

I'm wondering why you can't use dev_get_regmap() instead.

I'm wondering what bad could happen if you expose it.

That function is quite expensive to use in code that is called
for each register access. Its typical use is to get the regmap
for a driver once and store it in a local data structure, not
to use it for each access.

We can set `wdd->parent = dev` in ebc_c384_wdt_probe(), and then use
`dev_get_regmap(wdev->parent)` to retrieve the regmap. The only downside
I see if perhaps the added latency a call to devres_find(), whereas
using watchdog_get_drvdata() is just a pointer dereference.

I'm indifferent to either choice, so if Guenter or Wim have a preference
here I'll follow their decision.

The WINSYSTEMS EBC-C384 documentation I have does not specify what
offset 0x0 does (nor offsets 0x3-0x4), so I don't know if there are side
effects to reading those addresses. Really, I'm just avoiding the hassle
of writing an explicit precious registers table for those offsets by not
exposing them at all.

I am not inclined to accept a patch which calls dev_get_regmap() more
than once. It is not just added latency, it is unnecessarily executing
a lot of code. Maybe that call is abused nowadays, and/or maybe people do not
care about wasting CPU cycles anymore, but that is not its intended use case.

Counter questions:
- What would be the purpose of exposing register addresses if they are not needed ?
- What bad can happen by _not_ exposing those register addresses ?

The changes are too invasive to accept without testing.
I hope we can get a Tested-by: tag from someone. Other than
that, we are good to go from my perspective.

Paul,

Is anyone at WINSYSTEMS interested in this driver? I no longer have
access to this hardware so I can no longer maintain this driver, and the
original users of this driver indicated to me that they have moved on to
another device. If there is no longer interest at WINSYSTEMS to maintain
this driver, perhaps we should discuss removal of it from the Linux
codebase.
