This series attempts to add support for software nodes to gpiolib, using
software node references that were introduced recently. This allows us
to convert more drivers to the generic device properties and drop
support for custom platform data:

static const struct software_node gpio_bank_b_node = {
|-------.name = "B",
};

static const struct property_entry simone_key_enter_props[] = {
|-------PROPERTY_ENTRY_U32("linux,code", KEY_ENTER),
|-------PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING("label", "enter"),
|-------PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF("gpios", &gpio_bank_b_node, 123, GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW),
|-------{ }
};

If we agree in principle, I would like to have the very first 3 patches
in an immutable branch off maybe -rc8 so that it can be pulled into
individual subsystems so that patches switching various drivers to
fwnode_gpiod_get_index() could be applied.

Thanks,
Dmitry

I think it seems a bit enthusiastic to have non-GPIO subsystems
pick up these changes this close to the merge window so my plan
is to merge patches 1.2.3 (1 already merged) and then you could
massage the other subsystems in v5.4-rc1.

But if other subsystems say "hey we want do fix this in like 3 days"
then I'm game for an immutable branch as well.

Yours,
Linus Walleij

No, if it is still has a chance for -rc1 then I'm good. I was thinking
if it does not go into -rc1 I could convince some of them merge a
targeted immutable branch off -rc8 or 5.3 final and then apply patches
relevant to their subsystems so we do not have to wait till 5.6 to land
everything.

Thanks.

So I guess we missed -rc1. Any chance we could get an immutable branch
off -rc1 that you will pull into your main branch and I hopefully can
persuade other maintainers to pull as well so we do not need to drag it
over 2+ merge windows?

Thanks.

Yes I'm sorry. I was swamped with stabilizing the kernel.
I made an immutable branch and tried to use zeroday for testing
but it timed out so I folded it in for-next anyways after som basic
tests.
