This patch changes the devicetree bindings for the pps-gpio driver
from the integer based ABI to the descriptor based ABI.
? That has nothing to do with DT.

I believe it does, as the change in ABI forces a rename in the DT naming convention.
This is due to the descriptor based ABI appending "-gpio" or "-gpios" (see
Documentation/gpio/base.txt.)
Admittedly, I may have called it by the wrong name due to ignorance, my apologies.

 It also adds
documentation for the device tree capture-clear option.  The legacy
device tree entry for the GPIO pin is supported.

 Required properties:
 - compatible: should be "pps-gpio"
-- gpios: one PPS GPIO in the format described by ../gpio/gpio.txt
+- pps-gpios: one PPS GPIO in the format described by ../gpio/gpio.txt
+Alternatively (DEPRECATED), instead of pps-gpios above, it may have:
+- gpios: one PPS GPIO as above

 Optional properties:
 - assert-falling-edge: when present, assert is indicated by a falling edge
                        (instead of by a rising edge)
+- capture-clear: when present, also capture the PPS clear event

Is this a h/w thing? or driver configuration?

Driver configuration. Most of the code was present in the driver, yet it was not documented, or usable due to a two line (code) omission (the value was not being fetched from DT).


 Example:
        pps {
                pinctrl-names = "default";
                pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_pps>;

-               gpios = <&gpio1 26 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+               pps-gpios = <&gpio1 26 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
                assert-falling-edge;
+               capture-clear;

                compatible = "pps-gpio";
        };
