[PATCH 1/4] dt-bindings: mfd: rk806: allow to customize PMIC reset method

From: Quentin Schulz <quentin.schulz at cherry.de>

The RK806 PMIC (and RK809, RK817; but those aren't handled here) has a
bitfield for configuring the restart/reset behavior (which I assume
Rockchip calls "function") whenever the PMIC is reset (at least by
software; c.f. DEV_RST in the datasheet).

For RK806, the following values are possible for RST_FUN:

0b00 means "restart PMU"
0b01 means "Reset all the power off reset registers, forcing
            the state to switch to ACTIVE mode"
0b10 means "Reset all the power off reset registers, forcing
            the state to switch to ACTIVE mode, and simultaneously
            pull down the RESETB PIN for 5mS before releasing"
0b11 means the same as for 0b10 just above.

I don't believe this is suitable for a subsystem-generic property hence
let's make it a vendor property called rockchip,rst-fun.

The first few sentences in the description of the property are
voluntarily generic so they could be copied to the DT binding for
RK809/RK817 whenever someone wants to implement that for those PMIC.

+
+      This is the value in the RST_FUN bitfield according to the
+      datasheet. I.e. if RST_FUN is bits 6 and 7 and the desired value
+      of RST_FUN is 1, this property needs to be set to 1 (and not 64,

+      The meaning of this value is specific to the PMIC and is
+      explained in the datasheet.

+      For RK806, the following applies
+
+      0b00 means "restart PMU"
