Hi Hongwei,

thanks for your patch!

some comments and nitpicking below:

I think the SPDX people prefer GPL-2.0-or-later

Do not include this header in any new code using or
providing GPIOs.

This should be enough.

I guess you have been over the reasons why this is one big GPIO
chip instead of 10 individual gpio_chips?

It is usally better to have the individual chips, because it is easier
to just cut down the code to handle one instance and not having
to offset around the different address ranges.

Even if they all have the same clock, the clocks are reference
counted so it will just be referenced 10 times at most.

If they share a few common registers it is not good to split it
though. So there may be a compelling argument for keeping them
all together.

I don't see why that matters.

You don't need inline. The compiler will inline it anyway if it
see the need for it.

The only time we really use inline is in header files, where we
want to point out that this function will be inlined as there is no
compiled code in header files.

OK seems fairly standard.

These are fairly standard.

There is a bug here. You fail to write the "val" to the output
line, which is the expected semantic of this call.

These are all very simple MMIO accessors.

If you made one gpio_chip per bank, you could just use gpio-mmio.c
to control the lines by

select GPIO_GENERIC

ret = bgpio_init(chip, dev, 4,
base + GPIO_VAL_VALUE ,
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
0);

The MMIO gpio library takes care of shadowing the direction and all.
It also will implement get/set_multiple() for you for free.

So seriously consider making one gpio_chip per bank.

This also gets really complex with one driver for all the banks.

No need for this comment, developers know what "kzalloc" means.

This is a separate clock driver.

Break this out as a separate clk device that the other GPIOs
grab.

Put this in drivers/clk/clk-aspeed-gpio.c or wherever appropriate
with some
reg = <0xnnnnnn54 4>;

Then let the GPIO driver grab this clock. This makes it possible
to use a per-gpio-bank split of the GPIO chips.

It looks a bit complicated but this will work so much better because
the clock code is in the clock subsystem and the GPIO is split up
and becomes a very small driver since it can use gpio MMIO.
