Hi Angelo,

Some Qualcomm PMICs integrate a SDAM device, internally located in
a specific address range reachable through SPMI communication.

Instead of using the parent SPMI device (the main PMIC) as a kind
of syscon in this driver, register a new SPMI sub-device for SDAM
and initialize its own regmap with this sub-device's specific base
address, retrieved from the devicetree.

This allows to stop manually adding the register base address to
every R/W call in this driver, as this can be, and is now, handled
by the regmap API instead.

This is honestly a really nice improvement :D>

Thanks! :-D

I believe registers are 8 bits wide, at least on Qualcomm platforms.


I used 16 because usually that's the usual default for SPMI - but if
you're sure
about Qualcomm platforms having 8-bits wide registers and you can
confirm that,
I can change both of those to 8 in a jiffy.

reg_bits should be 16, only val_bits needs changing.


I anyway have to send a v2 because I forgot an error check - so changing
this is
not a problem at all for me.

But.

Before me changing - can you please please please double check and confirm?

If you can also check the register width of the others that I converted,
I'd really
appreciate that (I have no datasheets for qcom so it's a bit of a
guessing game for
me here... :-P), just so that we get everything right from the get-
go ... even if
a mismatch wouldn't really cause issues in the current state of things.

That's because - I just noticed - in qcom-spmi-pmic.c, reg_bits is 16,
but val_bits
is 8 (which basically means "the registers are 16-bits wide, but we
always only
care about the lower 8 bits).

yeah that's right, so as of today where we don't have the subdevices we
always get 8 bit values from the registers.

I don't have so much access to docs anymore but I only ever remember
seeing 8 bit wide registers on Qualcomm PMICs, I've never seen anything
wider, I can think of a few drivers where changing this to 16 would for
sure cause havoc.


Yeah, right. I'm changing all val_bits to 8 to ensure compatibility.

Cheers,
Angelo
