[PATCH v7 0/5] watchdog: mt7621-wdt: avoid globals and arch dependencies

From: Sergio Paracuellos
Date: Tue Feb 14 2023 - 05:39:51 EST


Hi all,

This series make an update in the MT7621 SoC's watchdog driver code. This
SoC already provides a system controller node to access reset status
register needed for the watchdog. Instead of using MIPS architecture
dependent operations in header 'asm/mach-ralink/ralink_regs.h' use
a phandle to the system controller node and use it through regmap APIs
from the code. Driver is also using some globals that are not needed at
all if a driver data structure is used along the code. Hence, add all
new needed stuff inside a new driver data structure. With this changes
driver can be properly compile tested.

Thanks in advance for reviewing this!

v1 of this series here [0].
v2 of this series here [1].
v3 of this series here [2].
v4 of this series here [3].
v5 of this series here [4].
v6 of this series here [5].

Changes in v7:
- Restore phandler 'mediatek,sysctl' in bindings with Krzysztof's 'Acked-by'.
- Use regmap syscon 'syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle()' and only if this
fails use 'syscon_regmap_lookup_by_compatible()' to avoid DTB's ABI breakage.

Changes in v6:
- Get regmap syscon using 'syscon_regmap_lookup_by_compatible()'
- Add COMPILE_TEST and dependencies to Kconfig.
- Collect Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 'Reviewed-by' tag for watchdog node
warning fix.

Changes in v5:
- Drop patches related with device tree ABI breakage and only
maintain the rest.
- Collect Arinc 'Reviewed-by' tag for watchdog node warning fix.

Changes in v4:
- Add a patch to fix a watchdog node warning with 'make dtbs_check'
because of a wrong node name.
- Collect Guenter 'Reviewed-by' tags for watchdog driver code.
- Add a missing 'COMPILE_TEST' to Kconfig which was lost when driver
code was split in two patches in v2.

Changes in v3:
- rename phandler from 'ralink,sysctl' into 'mediatek,sysctl'.
- Drop error message added in PATCH 3 that modifies functionality
and we only want to maintain current functionaloty by now.

Changes in v2:
- Remove no needed compatible 'syscon' from bindings.
- Rewrite new syscon phandle description in bindings.
- Remove 'syscon' from compatible in 'mt7621.dtsi'.
- Split PATCH 3 into two different patches:
- PATCH 3: removes static globals using a driver data structure.
- PATCH 4: remove ralink architecture dependent includes and code.

Best regards,
Sergio Paracuellos
