[PATCH v3 0/2] Add a "label" property to the mtd device

[PATCH v3 0/2] Add a "label" property to the mtd device

[Cédric Le Goater]

Hello,

Herer are a couple of patches adding a "label" property to the mtd
device, which can be used to identify a specific chip on a system with
multiple chips. This is common on the OpenPower boards, there can be
four chips holding the firmware for the BMC and the firmware for the
host, plus chips with golden images for recovery.

Thanks,

C.

 Changes since v2:

 - only assign device name from label if mtd->name is undefined

 Changes since v1:

 - moved the use of the "label" property from mtd_set_dev_defaults()
   to mtd_set_of_node() to let drivers keep control on how mtd->name
   is set and allocated.

Cédric Le Goater (2):
  mtd: name the mtd device with an optional label property
  dt-bindings: mtd: add a common label property to all mtd devices
