[PATCH v9 1/2] gpio: Adjust of_xlate API to support multiple GPIO chips

Roland Stigge stigge at antcom.de
Fri May 11 05:47:39 EDT 2012


This patch changes the of_xlate API to make it possible to manipulate the
actual used gc. This way, multiple GPIO banks can be supported with the same DT
registered GPIO controller.

The issue was discussed upon the integration of LPC32xx's DT support for its
GPIO (see separate patch).
