Some drivers do + that and would be broken by attempts to poison it or make it dynamic. + Example in AT91 pinctrl driver: + https://lore.kernel.org/all/1d00c056-3d61-4c22-bedd-3bae0bf1ddc4@pengutronix.de/ + This particular driver is also DT-only, so with the above fixed, the + base can be made dynamic (set to -1) if CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS is disabled. + - When this work is complete (will require some of the items in the following ongoing work as well) we can delete the old global numberspace accessors from <linux/gpio.h> and eventually delete |
