[PATCH 0/2] hwmon: (adt7475) pin configuration

[Chris Packham]

This series adds support for configuring the ADT7475 based on the
hardware description provided. The ADT7475 driver has always supported
detecting the configuration. This adds support for configuring the chip
based on the hardware design.

[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: hwmon: Document adt7475 pin-function properties

[Chris Packham]

The adt7473, adt7475, adt7476 and adt7490 have pins that can be used for
different functions. Add bindings so that it is possible to describe
what pin functions are intended by the hardware design.

[PATCH 2/2] hwmon: (adt7475) Add support for pin configuration

[Chris Packham]

The adt7473, adt7475, adt7476 and adt7490 have pins that can be used for
different functions. On the adt7473 and  adt7475 this is pins 5 and 9.
On the adt7476 and adt7490 this is pins 10 and 14.

The first pin can either be PWM2(default) or SMBALERT#. The second pin
can be TACH4(default), THERM#, SMBALERT# or GPIO.

The adt7475 driver has always been able to detect the configuration if
it had been done by an earlier boot stage. Add support for configuring
the pins based on the hardware description in the device tree.

A better function name would probably be load_config3() or similar.

error check missing (I see the driver is notorious for that, but that is not
a reason to keep doing it).

conf_ prefix is unnecessary.

It doesn't seem right to return -EINVAL here.

Why not check this first, and what is the point of assigning values to
conf_prop1 and conf_prop2 for the other chips in the case statement above
only to return 0 here ? It would be much simpler to drop the other chips
from the case statement and have default: return 0.

The messages are misleading. This isn't always pin 10/14.

Ikegami-san and Dan did to some good work to address some of that. The 
probe function is still quite careless.

I'll see what I can do to make sure my additions don't make it worse.

Have you got a better suggestion? I was trying to avoid someone 
specifying compatible = "adi,adt7476" with "adi,pin5-function". Is your 
concern that I should use -ENODEV or that I should just pick more 
generic names for the configurable pins (naming things is hard).

Or perhaps just dev_warn() and return 0?

Sorry that is old. I initially was under the impression that only these

If you use "enum chips" as function parameter you should not need
a default: case. Otherwise -EINVAL is fine _if_ the code below is
removed. I didn't understand what you wanted to accomplish by
returning 0 for known (but unsupported) devices but -EINVAL for
non-existing ones.
