Hello Julian, Thanks a lot for your feedback and reviews.

And that is why the mwifiex_sdio_probe_of() function does not fail if the IRQ is missing. Now, I just got to that conclusion by reading the binding docs, the message in the commits that introduced this and the driver code. Xinming Hu should comment on how critical this feature is for systems that needs to be wakeup. In any case I think that the code should be consistent with what the binding doc says and also the function does (i.e: dev_err only if returns an error). >> Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> > > Other than that, this looks sensible to me. > > Reviewed-by: Julian Calaby <julian.calaby@gmail.com> > Best regards,

IRQ is the optional parameter. System has a flexibility to not use it, but it still can configure other device tree parameters. The patch looks good. Regards, Amitkumar

The Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/wireless/marvell-sd8xxx.txt DT binding document say that the "interrupts" property in the child node is optional. So the property being missed shouldn't be treated as an error.
