From 0894e9875cff7bcd2a7cb732e84626f320caae96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Jeffery Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2016 17:45:32 +1030 Subject: [PATCH] mfd: dt: Add ranges, #address-cells and #size-cells as optional properties Whilst describing a device and not a bus, simple-mfd is modelled on simple-bus where child nodes are iterated and registered as platform devices. Some complex devices, e.g. the Aspeed LPC controller, can benefit from address space mapping such that child nodes can use the regs property to describe their resource offsets within the multi-function device.
