[RFC PATCH 04/10] mfd: Add base driver for Netronix embedded controller

Sat Jun 20 18:42:15 EDT 2020


Third-party hardware documentation is available at
https://github.com/neuschaefer/linux/wiki/Netronix-MSP430-embedded-controller

The EC supports interrupts, but the driver doesn't make use of them so
far.

Known problems:
- The reboot handler is installed in such a way that it directly calls
  into the i2c subsystem to send the reboot command to the EC. This
  means that the reboot handler may sleep, which is not allowed.
