Subject: [RFC PATCH 00/13] Add tuning algorithm for delay chain

This patch series introduces a new tuning algorithm for
mmc. The new algorithm should be used when delay chain is
enabled. The ITAPDLY is selected from the largest passing
window and the buffer is not viewed as a circular buffer.
The new tuning algorithm is implemented as per the paper
published here [0] and has been tested on the following
platforms: AM62x SK, AM62A SK, AM62p SK, AM64x SK, and AM64x
EVM.

The series also includes a few fixes in the sdhci_am654
driver on OTAPDLYEN/ITAPDLYEN and ITAPDELSEL. There are
also device tree node fixes for missing mmc nodes,
modifying DLL properties, and fixes for OTAP/ITAP delay
values.

MMC0/MMC2 nodes are introduced for AM62ax in this series.

This series is sent as a RFC mostly to get some feedback
and/or comments on the new tuning algorithm implementation.

These patches needs to have Fixes: tag as they are bug fixes IMO.

Can the driver changes be merged independent of DT changes? Or are they
meant to go together? Latter would be problematic as it creates cross
tree dependencies.

Normally yes, but here I see update to tuning algorithm and timing
paramaters to the algorithm. DT updates seem to be nature of bug fixes
where in parameters have been refined due to more HW char
data/understanding being available.

I get nervous when anyone posts both driver and DT changes in a single
series, because they may not have tested driver changes standalone and
may have broken the DT backward compatibility

DTS cannot depend on driver changes, because that would mean hardware
description is not really hardware but OS. So the answer to your
question must be "yes, can be merged independently".

The driver changes can be merged independently.

Then the patchset should be probably split into fixes and new features,
so it would be clear that new DTS features do not depend on driver code.
