Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Add new reg_update_bits() support

The Spreadtrum platform uses a special set/clear method to update
registers' bits, thus this patch set registers a physical regmap
bus into syscon core to support this feature instead of using the
MMIO bus, which is not a physical regmap bus.

Any comments are welcome. Thanks.

Changes from RFC v2:
- Drop regmap change, which was applied by Mark.
- Add more information about how to use set/clear.
- Add checking to ensure the platform is compatible with
using a new physical regmap bus.

Changes from RFC v1:
- Add new helper to registers a physical regmap bus instead of
using the MMIO bus.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] soc: sprd: Add Spreadtrum special bits updating support

The spreadtrum platform uses a special set/clear method to update
registers' bits, which can remove the race of updating the global
registers between the multiple subsystems. Thus we can register
a physical regmap bus into syscon core to support this.

Would it make sense to have a

WARN_ONCE(set && clk, "%s: non-atomic update", __func__);

in the code to check for this?

This no longer breaks at runtime based on the changes in the other
patch, but I still don't like how you have to manually load this module
on spreadtrum platforms.

What I meant to suggest in my previous reply was to add the regmap_bus
instance into drivers/mfd/syscon.c itself.

Yes, will add.

Sorry, I misunderstood your meaning before, but what you suggested
will add some vendor-specific things into the common syscon driver, if
other platforms have different update bits method, we will add another
vendor-specific regmap bus into the syscon.c, which will make syscon.c
more complicated.

But if you still prefer to add these vendor-specific things into the
syscon.c, I will follow your suggestion in next version. Thanks.

I think we can always deal with this once it gets too complex, as long
as the DT binding allows it.

Yes, please do.
