Thanks for everyone who reviewed v7 patchset, here is v8 with review comments addressed.
SLIMbus (Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) is a specification developed by MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) alliance. SLIMbus is a 2-wire implementation, which is used to communicate with peripheral components like audio-codec. SLIMbus uses Time-Division-Multiplexing to accommodate multiple data channels, and control channel. Control channel has messages to do device-enumeration, messages to send/receive control-data to/from SLIMbus devices, messages for port/channel management, and messages to do bandwidth allocation. Framework is introduced to support multiple instances of the bus (1 controller per bus), and multiple slave devices per controller. SPI and I2C frameworks, and comments from last time when I submitted the patches were referred-to while working on this framework.
These patchsets introduce device-management, OF helpers, and messaging APIs, controller driver for Qualcomm's SLIMbus controller, and clock-pause feature for entering/exiting low-power mode for SLIMbus. Framework patches to do channel, port and bandwidth management are work-in-progress and will be sent out once these initial patches are accepted.
These patchsets were tested on Qualcomm Snapdragon processor board using the controller driver, and a test slave device.
v7: https://lwn.net/Articles/739150/
Changes from v7 to v8: * Fixed few warnings from kerneldoc * Few cosmetic fixes suggested by Vinod * made SLIMbus string usage more consistent with spec * made probe mandatory for slim device * replaced explicit info and value element apis with more generic api * made driver_data aligned * cleaned up qcom controller driver as suggested by Charles and Jonathan
