[RFC] ARM: dts: sunxi: Add regulators and board-specific operating points for LeMaker BananaPi

From: Timo Sigurdsson
Date: Sun Jul 26 2015 - 21:36:49 EST


sun7i-a20-bananapi.dts doesn't contain regulator nodes for the AXP209 PMU
driver, so add them to allow for voltage-scaling with cpufreq-dt. With the
regulators enabled, we can define board-specific operating points. The defined
CPU voltages are more conservative (based on the values used by the vendor),
so they should be more failsafe across all boards of this kind out there.

I'm posting this as RFC as I would like to make a few more remarks and raise
questions along the way (plus, I'm anything but an experienced developer, so a
a critical review might help).

I checked the regulator definitions against the schematics released by LeMaker.
I also compared that to the DT and schematics of Cubiboard 2 and Cubietruck. Of
course, I also tested the patch on the actual hardware and it works fine for me.
The CPU voltages are slightly higher than those set in sun7i-a20.dtsi and even
though they work well for me, I thought it might be safer to use the more
conservative values used by LeMaker in their old fex file. Would you agree?
Besides, it it ok to have this in one patch or should it be splitted in two
(one for the regulators and one for the opp)? Did I miss something important?
