Changes in v5:
- delete a unnecessary blank line in syscon-reboot-mode.txt
- rename macro BOOT_LOADER to BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD, which gives a more clear mean

Changes in v4:
- remove mode-maskrom
- rename mode-fastboot to mode-bootloader to keep compatible with the exiting Android device

Changes in v3:
- descirbe all reboot mode as properity instead of subnode

Changes in v2: None
Changes in v1: None

+Generic reboot mode core map driver
+
+This driver get reboot mode arguments and call the write
+interface to stores the magic value in special register
+or ram . Then the bootloader can read it and take different
+action according the argument stored.
+
+All mode properties are vendor specific, it is a indication to tell
+the bootloder what to do when the system reboot, and should be named
+as mode-xxx = <magic> (xxx is mode name).
+
+- mode-normal: Normal reboot mode, system reboot with command "reboot".
+- mode-recovery: Android Recovery mode, it is a mode to format the device or update a new image.
+- mode-bootloader: Android fastboot mode, it's a mode to re-flash partitions on the Android based device.
+- mode-loader: A bootloader mode, it's a mode used to download image on Rockchip platform,
+ usually used in development.
+
+Example:
+ reboot-mode {
+ mode-normal = <BOOT_NORMAL>;
+ mode-recovery = <BOOT_RECOVERY>;
+ mode-bootloader = <BOOT_FASTBOOT>;
+ mode-loader = <BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD>;
+ }

+SYSCON reboot mode driver
+
+This driver get reboot mode magic value form reboot-mode driver
+and stores it in a SYSCON mapped register. Then the bootloader
+can read it and take different action according to the magic
+value stored.
+
+This DT node should be represented as a sub-node of a "syscon", "simple-mfd"
+node.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "syscon-reboot-mode"
+- offset: offset in the register map for the storage register (in bytes)
+
+Optional properity:
+- mask: the mask bits of the mode magic value, default set to 0xffffffff if missing.
I can't see how this is used. I would drop it for now.

With that change:

Acked-by: Rob Herring <robh@xxxxxxxxxx>

The mask is suggested by Moritz Fischer in V2[0]. And I found Tegra did indeed only use some bits of one register to store the reboot mode[1].

@Heiko: It seems that this patch series can land now, but the dts parts belong to two different branch(arm32 and arm64) . And these
two parts both depends on one head file rockchip_boot-mode.h, So I hope some suggestions from you how to deal with it.

+The rest of the properties should follow the generic reboot-mode discription
+found in reboot-mode.txt
+
+Example:
+ pmu: pmu@20004000 {
+ compatible = "rockchip,rk3066-pmu", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
+ reg = <0x20004000 0x100>;

+ reboot-mode {

+ offset = <0x40>;
+ mode-normal = <BOOT_NORMAL>;
+ mode-recovery = <BOOT_RECOVERY>;
+ mode-bootloader = <BOOT_FASTBOOT>;
+ mode-loader = <BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD>;
+ };
