In some situations, userspace may want to resolve a

able to resolve a device by alias frees userspace from the

With the current API, GPIOs are manipulated through an integer which
represents their unique number across the system. This poses problems in
terms of portability, scalability and flexibility: for instance, the

large array of

serious work. This patch introduces a set of gpiod_* functions that work like
their gpio_* counterparts, but use opaque descriptors instead of integers.

The cmdline is the easiest to change source of information. Thus
let it take precedence over 'RedBoot' and 'ofpart'. This makes the

Yeah, it needs to be hidden from root - but ideally we'd be passing it to the
second kernel

OK, that may be a problem. Does this patch apply to Linus' tree
currently? I guess not. So, either you need to split it up and send it

This patch introduces a driver for Cypress All Points Addressable
I2C Trackpad, including the ones in 2012 Samsung Chromebooks.
This device is compatible with MT protocol type B, providing identifiable
contacts.

Thanks for the patience on this driver. I have stripped out firmware update,
the sysfs properties around firmware version, hardware version, update_fw,
and power state.
I have incorporated rydberg's suggestions for cleanup.
