 Very good news, but, your driver seems not to do anything except suspend/resume. But how do i add
some device plugged into it? In order to be operational, its outputs have to be configured. But how
do i do it with your driver? For example, on SMDK boards SROM controller is used to connect SMSC9111
etherner chip.
 Currently i use hardcoded initialization based on of_machine_is_compatible(), but i believe this
would be considered a hack and such a thing cannot be pushed upstream. I guess i have to put all
needed configuration into device tree somehow. But how? Are there any recommentations?
