Hi William,

There is some type confusion going on in the stm32_lptim driver that should
be cleaned up.

A few other minor things but basically looks good to me so I probably won't
look through this one again for v13 unless some discussion starts!

One to note is that Andy just moved the kstrtoxx definitions to a new header,
so we should include that where they are used going forwards.  Can do that
as a cleanup later though given you probably don't want to rebase this on
a mid merge window state.

Jonathan

You have some drivers that do this internally then you replicate it here?
An example is cable_fault in the quad 8.  That is not necessarily a
problem, but perhaps a comment to say this one should be paranoia and
expectation is drivers will deliver 0 or 1.

As below, group is a confusing name, so I'd prefix it with something.

Naming is a bit too similar to 'group' to lead to nice readable code.  Maybe
cattr_groups or something like that?  groups and dev->groups not being the same
thing is definitely confusing!

Slight nitpick, is I'd have been tempted to reduce the number of allocations
by doing this as a single array allocation then use the groups within this
loop.  Really trivial though!

This bothers me a little. Why are you casting from enum counter_function to enum stm32_lptim_cnt_function?
That function is indeed putting an enum stm32_lptim_cnt_function into function and it really shouldn't
be.  Whilst the values of the enums are the same, it would be better to have explicit item by
item conversion if that's necessary.  I 'think' you can just get rid of the
enum stm32_lptim_cnt_function though and use the counter one throughout the driver.

If you want to keep changes minimal, put a conversion function in place.
