ACPI / GPIO: Driver GPIO mappings for ACPI GPIOs
Provide a way for device drivers using GPIOs described by ACPI GpioIo resources in _CRS to tell the GPIO subsystem what names (connection IDs) to associate with specific GPIO pins defined in there. To do that, a driver needs to define a mapping table as a NULL-terminated array of struct acpi_gpio_mapping objects that each contain a name, a pointer to an array of line data (struct acpi_gpio_params) objects and the size of that array. Each struct acpi_gpio_params object consists of three fields, crs_entry_index, line_index, active_low, representing the index of the target GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource in _CRS starting from zero, the index of the target line in that resource starting from zero, and the active-low flag for that line, respectively. Next, the mapping table needs to be passed as the second argument to acpi_dev_add_driver_gpios() that will register it with the ACPI device object pointed to by its first argument. That should be done in the driver's .probe() routine. On removal, the driver should unregister its GPIO mapping table by calling acpi_dev_remove_driver_gpios() on the ACPI device object where that table was previously registered. Included are fixes from Mika Westerberg. Acked-by: Alexandre Courbot <acourbot@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
