Merge tag 'pinctrl-for-3.7-late' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull second set of pinctrl patches from Linus Walleij:
"Here is a late pinctrl pull request with stuff that wasn't quite
tested at the first pull request.
The main reason to not hold off is that the modifications to
irq_domain_add_simple() as reviewed by Rob Herring introduce new
infrastructure for irqdomains that will be useful for the next cycle:
instead of sprinkling irq descriptor allocation all over the kernel
wherever a "legacy" domain is registered, which is necessary for any
platform using sparse IRQs, and many irq chips are say GPIO
controllers which may be used with several systems, some with sparse
IRQs some not, we push this into the irq_domain_add_simple() so we can
atleast do mistakes in one place.
The irq_domain_add_simple() is currently unused in the kernel, so I
need to provide a user. The Nomadik stuff that goes with are changes
to the driver I use day-to-day to make use of this facility (and a
dependency), so see it as a way to eat my own dogfood: if this blows
up the egg hits my face.
A second round of pinctrl patches for v3.7:
- Complement the Nomadik pinctrl driver with alternate Cx functions
so it handles all oddities.
- A patch to the IRQdomain to reform the simple irqdomain to handle
IRQ descriptor allocation dynamically.
- Use the above feature in the Nomadik pin controller."
* tag 'pinctrl-for-3.7-late' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl:
pinctrl/nomadik: use simple or linear IRQ domain
irqdomain: augment add_simple() to allocate descs
pinctrl/nomadik: support other alternate-C functions
