Hi,
You would definitely need some text here, at the very least this "90"
deserves some comment.
But what is this property meant to say, actually? Looking at the DT I
guess you want to mark GPIOs as not connected/exposed or such? I don't
think this is the intended purpose of this property, it's more for
describing ranges of GPIOs not implemented in the GPIO *controller* -
say there are 18 pins on PortA, but pins 9-12 are not implemented (no
registers) - check Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt.
But keep in mind that the Allwinner pinctrl device does not use this
kind of per-port binding in the first place, and I wouldn't know of any
SoC having non-consecutive pins per port anyway.
So I think this is not needed, not in this binding, and not in the DT.
Cheers,
Andre
P.S. Feel free to discuss things in replies to emails - that's why we
have those mails. In the past you seemed to always answer very quickly
with a new series, even though you seemed to disagree on some things
(RTC?)
