Just to ensure there will be no misunderstanding - I have not authored
the modifications seen in "Kobo-Reader" repository. Upstream driver does
register the regulators - and it does not use the oddly named gpio_int
or the gpio_wdogb:

I understand why bootloader would check this register - but I don't
understand why the driver would clear it as it should be cleared by
reset (unless I missread the spec).

Right. It makes perfect sense now. Thanks! (Do you think it's worth a
comment?)

I still think this is odd because, if I read it right, this is an IRQ
status and not a mask register. Well, wouldn't be a first undocumented
"feature" I see...

Thanks :) Very much appreciated!

Odd! Not only did I not receive the original patch, I also did not
receive your response Andreas. Spam is empty too.

LORE too: https://lore.kernel.org/all/?q=%22mfd:%20rohm-bd71828:%20Add%20power%20off%20functionality%22

yes, I know it is not from you and I know the general quality in those repos.
But I feel not well pointing to those repositories without issuing the warning
that regulator information in dtb is not an authoritative source for required
regulator settings. Not that someone enables the smoke-generator
functionality...

But lets not go too much offtopic.

Andreas

Super weird! They just all came through.

The LORE link above is now working too.

I suspect an issue with kernel.org.
