As commit b6147490e6aa ("mmc: tmio: split core functionality, DMA and MFD glue") said, these MMC controllers use the IP from Panasonic. TMIO (Toshiba Mobile IO) MMC was the first upstreamed user of this IP. The common driver code was split and expanded as 'tmio-mmc-core', then it became historical misnomer since 'tmio' is not the name of this IP. In the discussion [1], we decide to keep this name as-is at least in Linux driver level because renaming everything is a big churn. However, DT should not be oriented to a particular project even though it is mainly developed in Linux communities. This is the misfortune only in Linux. Let's stop exporting it to other projects, where there is no good reason to call this hardware "TMIO". Rename the file to renesas,sdhi.txt. In fact, all the information in this file is specific to the Renesas platform. This commit also removes the first paragraph entirely. The DT-binding should describe the hardware. It is strange to talk about Linux driver internals such as how the drivers are probed, how platform data are handed off, etc. [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mmc/msg46952.html Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> --- Changes in v2: - Rename to renesas,sdhi.txt instead of renesas_sdhi.txt .../bindings/mmc/{tmio_mmc.txt => renesas,sdhi.txt} | 11 +---------- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 10 deletions(-) rename Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/{tmio_mmc.txt => renesas,sdhi.txt} (87%)
