Hello,

This is v2 of my patches to add i2c support to the nct6775 driver.

Changes since v1 [0]:
 - Added preparatory patch converting driver to regmap API [Guenter]
 - Replaced ENOSPC with ENOBUFS and removed WARN_ON() in
   nct6775_add_attr_group() [Guenter]
 - Added dedicated symbol namespace [Guenter]
 - Removed nct6775_write_temp() and nct6775_update_device() symbol
   exports [Guenter]
 - Reordered patches to put dt-bindings patch first [Krzysztof]

The nct6775-platform and nct6775-i2c drivers have both been tested on
the NCT6779D in an ASRock ROMED8HM3 system and the NCT6798 [1] in an
ASRock X570-D4U (the latter thanks to Renze, CCed); both seem to work
as expected on both systems.  I don't have access to any asuswmi
hardware, so testing of the nct6775-platform driver on that to ensure
it doesn't break there would be appreciated (Oleksandr, perhaps?).

[1] Though it's physically labeled (mislabeled?) as an NCT6796, for
    what that's worth.

A slightly edited version of the previous cover letter follows:


This patch series augments the existing nct6775 driver with support
for the hardware's i2c interface; along the way it converts the driver
to use the regmap API, and splits the LPC-specific platform driver
into a separate module from the interface-independent core.

Thus far the nct6775 driver has only supported the LPC interface,
which is the main interface by which the Super-I/O chip is typically
connected to the host (x86) processor.

However, these chips also provide an i2c interface, which can provide
a way for a BMC to also monitor sensor readings from them.  On some
systems (such as the ASRock Rack ROMED8HM3 and X570-D4U) this may be
the only way for the BMC to monitor host CPU temperatures (e.g. to
indirectly access a TSI interface); this functionality is thus an
important component of enabling OpenBMC to support such systems.

In such an arrangement the Super-I/O chip is simultaneously controlled
by two independent processors (the host and the BMC) which typically
do not coordinate their accesses with each other.  In order to avoid
conflicts between the two, the i2c driver avoids all writes to the
device, since the BMC's needs with the hardware are merely that it be
able to retrieve sensor readings.  This allows the host processor to
remain ultimately in control of the chip and unaware of the BMC's use
of it at all.

The sole exception to the "no writes" rule for the i2c driver is for
the bank-select register -- while I haven't been able to find any
explicit statement in the Nuvoton datasheets guaranteeing this,
testing via manual register accesses (as detailed in [2]) has
indicated that, as one might hope, the i2c interface has its own
bank-select register independent of the one used by the LPC interface.

In terms of code structure, the approach taken in this series is to
first convert the driver's register accesses to the regmap API, and
then split the LPC-specific parts of it out into a separate module
(called nct6775-platform), leaving the interface-independent parts in
a generic driver (called nct6775-core).  The nct6775-i2c driver is
then added as an additional consumer of the nct6775-core module's
functionality (essentially just providing its own set of regmap
read/write callback functions).

The first patch provides DT bindings for the nct6775, the second
contains the change to convert all register accesses to use a regmap.
The third and fourth patches make some relatively small
infrastructural changes to the driver.  The core/platform driver split
is in the fifth patch, and the final patch adds the i2c driver itself.


Thanks,
Zev
