Subject: [PATCH v7 1/3] dt/bindings: Add binding for the Raspberry Pi firmware driver

This driver will provide support for calls into the firmware that will
be used by other drivers like cpufreq and vc4.

Acked-by: Stephen Warren <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]>
---

v2: Improve commit message, point to mailbox.txt for how mboxes work.
v3: Use Lee's suggestion for mailbox phandle docs, fix spelling of
"raspberry".
v4: Change the compatible string to "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware"
(requested by Lee, agreed by Stephen)
v5: Add missing s-o-b, fix spelling.

Subject: [PATCH v7 2/3] ARM: bcm2835: Add the Raspberry Pi firmware driver

This gives us a function for making mailbox property channel requests
of the firmware, which is most notable in that it will let us get and
set clock rates.

Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]>
---

v2: Drop power-domains stuff for now since we don't have the driver
core support to make it useful. Move to drivers/firmware/.
Capitalize the enums. De-global the firmware variable. Use the
firmware device to allocate our DMA buffer, so that the dma-ranges
DT property gets respected. Simplify the property tag transaction
interface even more, leaving a multi-tag interface still
available. For conciseness, rename "raspberrypi" to "rpi" on all
functions/enums/structs, and the "firmware" variable to "fw".
Print when the driver is probed successfully, since debugging
-EPROBE_DEFER handling is such a big part of bcm2835 development.
Drop -EBUSY mailbox handling since the mailbox core has been fixed
to return -EPROBE_DEFER in -next.

v3: Use kernel-doc style for big comments (from Noralf), drop stale
comment, use "dev" when freeing DMA as well.

v4: Move description comment into copyright comment, drop a dead
initialization of "ret", and print the firmware revision at probe
time.

v5: Rename the compatible to "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware", move
include to not say "property", add functions to get struct
rpi_firmware from the device_node and put when done, make property
functions take the rpi_firmware instead and never return
-EPROBE_DEFER, put the driver under its own RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE
Kconfig.

v6: Drop the try_module_get/module_put stuff, since all clients will
be referencing our symbols in order to call those functions,
anyway. Fix the kerneldoc comments for the changes in v5.

Does anyone know how drivers/firmware/ is managed? I don't seem to be
able to find a maintainer/supporter listed in MAINTAINERS.
