Merge tag 'pinctrl-v3.12-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull pin control changes from Linus Walleij: "Here is the bulk of pin control changes for the v3.12 series. Most of the relevant information is in the tag. I merged in v3.11-rc7 last week to get rid of a largeish conflict within the sunxi (AllWinner) driver in linux-next and fix up the non-trivial merge the right way. That driver had a rather large fix adding locking late in the release cycle. Overall the bulk changes this time is cleanups and refactorings and not much new features, which is nice. - Refactorings for generic pin config handling in the core. - Factor out a set of device tree utilities for use in all drivers, to parse and allocate maps from the device tree. - Some fixes to the core such as more nitpicky locking. - Pushed down config array iteration into the drivers. This patch is necessary for drivers that want to iterate over configs and pile up a stack of alterations to the same register(s), or if the driver wants to take a local spinlock when committing the configuration. - A new driver for the Texas Instruments Palmas PMIC by Laxman Dewangan. This is used on the Tegra systems. - A major cleanup and modernization of the PFC (Super Hitachi and ARM SHmobile) pin controller and subdrivers. - Support for the A20 and A31 sunxi (AllWinner) SoCs. - A huge pile of fixes and cleanups: Axel Lin, Jingoo Han Dan Carpenter, Julia Lawall and Sachin Kamat did an excellent job here" * tag 'pinctrl-v3.12-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl: (124 commits) pinctrl: sunxi: Fix off-by-one for valid offset range checking pinctrl: sunxi: drop lock on error path pinctrl: pinconf-generic: Remove ti prefix in dev_err messages pinctrl: rockchip: Implement .request() and .free() callbacks pinctrl: at91: fix get_pullup/down function return pinctrl: sh-pfc: remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata() pinctrl: Add s5pv210 support to pinctrl-exynos pinctrl: utils: include export.h to avoid warnings pinctrl: s3c24xx: off by one in s3c24xx_eint_init() pinctrl: mvebu: testing the wrong variable pinctrl: abx500: fix bitwise AND test pinctrl: mvebu: Convert to use devm_ioremap_resource pinctrl: Pass all configs to driver on pin_config_set() pinctrl: tz1090-pdc: Convert to devm_ioremap_resource pinctrl: tz1090: Convert to devm_ioremap_resource pinctrl: tegra: Convert to devm_ioremap_resource pinctrl: rockchip: Simplify pin_to_bank equation pinctrl: spear: Convert to devm_ioremap_resource pinctrl: rockchip: Remove of_match_ptr macro for DT only driver pinctrl: palmas: PINCTRL_PALMAS needs to select PINMUX ...

+Palmas Pincontrol bindings

+The pins of Palmas device can be set on different option and provides

+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: It must be one of following:
+ - "ti,palmas-pinctrl" for Palma series of the pincontrol.
+ - "ti,tps65913-pinctrl" for Palma series device TPS65913.
+ - "ti,tps80036-pinctrl" for Palma series device TPS80036.
+
+Please refer to pinctrl-bindings.txt in this directory for details of the
+common pinctrl bindings used by client devices, including the meaning of the
+phrase "pin configuration node".
+
+Palmas's pin configuration nodes act as a container for an arbitrary number of
+subnodes. Each of these subnodes represents some desired configuration for a
+list of pins. This configuration can include the mux function to select on
+those pin(s), and various pin configuration parameters, such as pull-up,
+open drain.
+
+The name of each subnode is not important; all subnodes should be enumerated
+and processed purely based on their content.
+
+Each subnode only affects those parameters that are explicitly listed. In
+other words, a subnode that lists a mux function but no pin configuration
+parameters implies no information about any pin configuration parameters.
+Similarly, a pin subnode that describes a pullup parameter implies no
+information about e.g. the mux function.
+
+Optional properties:
+- ti,palmas-enable-dvfs1: Enable DVFS1. Configure pins for DVFS1 mode.
+ Selection primary or secondary function associated to I2C2_SCL_SCE,
+ I2C2_SDA_SDO pin/pad for DVFS1 interface
+- ti,palmas-enable-dvfs2: Enable DVFS2. Configure pins for DVFS2 mode.
+ Selection primary or secondary function associated to GPADC_START
+ and SYSEN2 pin/pad for DVFS2 interface
+
+This binding uses the following generic properties as defined in
+pinctrl-bindings.txt:
+
+Required: pins
+Options: function, bias-disable, bias-pull-up, bias-pull-down,
+ bias-pin-default, drive-open-drain.
+
+Note that many of these properties are only valid for certain specific pins.
+See the Palmas device datasheet for complete details regarding which pins
+support which functionality.
+
+Valid values for pin names are:
+ gpio0, gpio1, gpio2, gpio3, gpio4, gpio5, gpio6, gpio7, gpio8, gpio9,
+ gpio10, gpio11, gpio12, gpio13, gpio14, gpio15, vac, powergood,
+ nreswarm, pwrdown, gpadc_start, reset_in, nsleep, enable1, enable2,
+ int.
+
+Valid value of function names are:
+ gpio, led, pwm, regen, sysen, clk32kgaudio, id, vbus_det, chrg_det,
+ vac, vacok, powergood, usb_psel, msecure, pwrhold, int, nreswarm,
+ simrsto, simrsti, low_vbat, wireless_chrg1, rcm, pwrdown, gpadc_start,
+ reset_in, nsleep, enable.
+
+There are 4 special functions: opt0, opt1, opt2 and opt3. If any of these
+functions is selected then directly pins register will be written with 0, 1, 2
+or 3 respectively if it is valid for that pins or list of pins.

GPIO mode pitfalls
==================
-Sometime the developer may be confused by a datasheet talking about a pin
-being possible to set into "GPIO mode". It appears that what hardware
-engineers mean with "GPIO mode" is not necessarily the use case that is
-implied in the kernel interface <linux/gpio.h>: a pin that you grab from
-kernel code and then either listen for input or drive high/low to
-assert/deassert some external line.
+Due to the naming conventions used by hardware engineers, where "GPIO"
+is taken to mean different things than what the kernel does, the developer
+may be confused by a datasheet talking about a pin being possible to set
+into "GPIO mode". It appears that what hardware engineers mean with
+"GPIO mode" is not necessarily the use case that is implied in the kernel
+interface <linux/gpio.h>: a pin that you grab from kernel code and then
+either listen for input or drive high/low to assert/deassert some
+external line.
Rather hardware engineers think that "GPIO mode" means that you can
software-control a few electrical properties of the pin that you would
not be able to control if the pin was in some other mode, such as muxed in
for a device.
+The GPIO portions of a pin and its relation to a certain pin controller
+configuration and muxing logic can be constructed in several ways. Here
+are two examples:
+
+(A)
+ pin config
+ logic regs
+ | +- SPI
+ Physical pins --- pad --- pinmux -+- I2C
+ | +- mmc
+ | +- GPIO
+ pin
+ multiplex
+ logic regs
+
+Here some electrical properties of the pin can be configured no matter
+whether the pin is used for GPIO or not. If you multiplex a GPIO onto a
+pin, you can also drive it high/low from "GPIO" registers.
+Alternatively, the pin can be controlled by a certain peripheral, while
+still applying desired pin config properties. GPIO functionality is thus
+orthogonal to any other device using the pin.
+
+In this arrangement the registers for the GPIO portions of the pin controller,
+or the registers for the GPIO hardware module are likely to reside in a
+separate memory range only intended for GPIO driving, and the register
+range dealing with pin config and pin multiplexing get placed into a
+different memory range and a separate section of the data sheet.
+
+(B)
+
+ pin config
+ logic regs
+ | +- SPI
+ Physical pins --- pad --- pinmux -+- I2C
+ | | +- mmc
+ | |
+ GPIO pin
+ multiplex
+ logic regs
+
+In this arrangement, the GPIO functionality can always be enabled, such that
+e.g. a GPIO input can be used to "spy" on the SPI/I2C/MMC signal while it is
+pulsed out. It is likely possible to disrupt the traffic on the pin by doing
+wrong things on the GPIO block, as it is never really disconnected. It is
+possible that the GPIO, pin config and pin multiplex registers are placed into
+the same memory range and the same section of the data sheet, although that
+need not be the case.
+
+From a kernel point of view, however, these are different aspects of the
+hardware and shall be put into different subsystems:
+
+- Registers (or fields within registers) that control electrical
+ properties of the pin such as biasing and drive strength should be
+ exposed through the pinctrl subsystem, as "pin configuration" settings.
+
+- Registers (or fields within registers) that control muxing of signals
+ from various other HW blocks (e.g. I2C, MMC, or GPIO) onto pins should
+ be exposed through the pinctrl subssytem, as mux functions.
+
+- Registers (or fields within registers) that control GPIO functionality
+ such as setting a GPIO's output value, reading a GPIO's input value, or
+ setting GPIO pin direction should be exposed through the GPIO subsystem,
+ and if they also support interrupt capabilities, through the irqchip
+ abstraction.
+
+Depending on the exact HW register design, some functions exposed by the
+GPIO subsystem may call into the pinctrl subsystem in order to
+co-ordinate register settings across HW modules. In particular, this may
+be needed for HW with separate GPIO and pin controller HW modules, where
+e.g. GPIO direction is determined by a register in the pin controller HW
+module rather than the GPIO HW module.
+
+Electrical properties of the pin such as biasing and drive strength
+may be placed at some pin-specific register in all cases or as part
+of the GPIO register in case (B) especially. This doesn't mean that such
+properties necessarily pertain to what the Linux kernel calls "GPIO".
+
Example: a pin is usually muxed in to be used as a UART TX line. But during
system sleep, we need to put this pin into "GPIO mode" and ground it.
