Yes, I'm aware. As you probably remember we still haven't gotten an ack on the original file, so given the outcome of the discussion of the design of this I plan to fold it into the original patch and send out a new version. > > drivers/regulator/qcom_rpm-regulator.c | 68 > > +++++++++++++++----- > > 2 files changed, 79 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/qcom-rpm.txt > > b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/qcom-rpm.txt > > index 4264021..4671eef 100644 > > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/qcom-rpm.txt > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/qcom-rpm.txt > > @@ -112,6 +112,13 @@ of valid subnodes that can operate on these resources. > > Definition: select that the power supply should operate in hysteretic > > mode, instead of the default pwm mode > > > > +- qcom,rpm-assisted-disable: > > + Usage: optional > > + Value type: <empty> > > + Definition: select that the regulator is supplying the active CPU(s) > > + and can only be disabled with the assistans from the RPM > > + after going to sleep > > + > > This requires a DT Ack. > The entire file still requires a dt ack, but the "sleep state" will change the binding so let's see where this RFC takes us. I would have preferred if someone gave me the "sleep state" feedback once we had this out for review, but it didn't reach the right people at Qualcomm at the time. > > Standard regulator bindings are used inside switch mode power supply > > subnodes. > > Check Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/regulator.txt for more > > details. > > @@ -160,6 +167,13 @@ details. > > qcom,rpm-pm8921-nldo, > > qcom,rpm-pm8921-nldo1200 > > > > +- qcom,rpm-assisted-disable: > > + Usage: optional > > + Value type: <empty> > > + Definition: select that the regulator is supplying the active CPU(s) > > + and can only be disabled with the assistans from the RPM > > + after going to sleep > > + > > Eh? I think I'm seeing double. > You're right, it would make sense to move this to a "common subnode properties" section.
