Before it was clearly established that all GPIO properties in the device tree shall be named "foo-gpios" (with the deprecated variant "foo-gpio" for single lines) we unfortunately merged a few bindings which named the lines "gpio-foo" instead. This is most prominent in the GPIO SPI driver in Linux which names the lines "gpio-sck", "gpio-mosi" and "gpio-miso". As we want to switch the GPIO SPI driver to using descriptors, we need devm_gpiod_get() to return something reasonable when looking up these in the device tree. Put in a special #ifdef:ed kludge to do this special lookup only for the SPI case and gets compiled out if we're not enabling SPI. If we have more oddly defined legacy GPIOs like this, they can be handled in a similar manner. Reviewed-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
