There are I2C devices which contain several different functions but doesn't require any special access functions. For these kind of drivers an I2C regmap should be enough. Create an I2C driver which creates an I2C regmap and enumerates its children. If a device wants to use this as its MFD core driver, it has to add an individual compatible string. It may provide its own regmap configuration. Subdevices can use dev_get_regmap() on the parent to get their regmap instance. Signed-off-by: Michael Walle <michael@walle.cc> --- Changes since v6: - added SIMPLE_MFD_I2C help text - revised description in module header Changes since v5: - removed "select MFD_CORE" in Kconfig - removed help text in Kconfig, we assume that the users of this driver will have a "select MFD_SIMPLE_MFD_I2C". Instead added a small description to the driver itself. - removed "struct simple_mfd_i2c_config" and use regmap_config directly - changed builtin_i2c_driver() to module_i2c_driver(), added MODULE_ boilerplate - cleaned up the included files Changes since v4: - new patch. Lee, please bear with me. I didn't want to delay the new version (where a lot of remarks on the other patches were addressed) even more, just because we haven't figured out how to deal with the MFD part. So for now, I've included this one. drivers/mfd/Kconfig | 12 ++++++++ drivers/mfd/Makefile | 1 + drivers/mfd/simple-mfd-i2c.c | 56 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 69 insertions(+) create mode 100644 drivers/mfd/simple-mfd-i2c.c
