Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] gpio: regmap: Support few IC specific operations

The set_config and init_valid_mask GPIO operations are usually very IC
specific. Allow IC drivers to provide these custom operations at
gpio-regmap registration.

Thanks for this. In general (from design p.o.v.) looks good to me, one
question below, though.

But why do we have gpio_regmap_get_drvdata() and why is it different
now to the new member handling?

Eg. the reg_mask_xlate() callback is just passed a "struct
gpio_regmap*".
If someone needs to access private data there, gpio_regmap_get_drvdata()
is used. At least that was its intention.

Thus I was also suggesting to use "struct gpio_regmap*" in the newer
callbacks.

I don't get what you mean by "different to the new member handling"?

I would help the IC driver here too and just directly provide the
drvdata pointer as argument. I don't see much value in providing the
regmap_gpio pointer as IC driver can not dereference it.

What is it with the "it's useless if one cannot dereference it"? You're
also passing "struct regmap *" which you cannot dereference. It's an
opaque pointer you need to pass to gpio_regmap to call a function there.

What is the problem with letting gpio_regmap derefence its internal data
structure and return the value for you?

Adding the drvdata to reg_mask_xlate() highlights my former concern; you
need to keep chaning the users to add another parameter. What if xlate()
needs the regmap, too? Then you need to change it again. Granted this is
a silly example, but you should get my point. It is by far more easy to
just add another new gpio_regmap_*(struct gpio_regmap *) function and
you don't have to change existing users.

Also what if gpio_regmap provides some useful helper function in the
future, it will likely need its internal data struct.

I don't think it's a silly example.

What I am not liking here is always adding a dummy function for getting
a regmap_gpio members which are likely to be needed by all users.
(drvdata, regmap). It makes IC drivers more complicated when they need
to call a function just to get a member value. Sure this adds some
flexibility what comes to potential changes - but it only is beneficial
if the changes ever happen. Else these getters and setters are just
boilerplate.

The regmap is not a problem as it is in any case coming to the gpio-
regamp from the IC driver. The IC driver can store regmap in drvdata.
(Sure it would be then stored in two places - gpio_regmap and drvdata).

That is is a valid point. As I said, I just don't like the idea that
things which are likely to be used must be fetched via an API call.
Those should be provided as such. But yes, it does not mean that there
would never be case(s) where the gpio_regmap should not be used as a
handle.

Thanks for the patience while explaining me your point Michael :) I'll
ponder this for a lil while before creating a new version (probably at
next week).

Currently we have a symmetrical API that is getter and setter against
a certain field.
Now this change drops the setter and introduces some other field somewhere else.
Sounds to me:
- either this has to be split into two changes with explanation of
what's going on
- or something odd is happening here which I do not understand.
