Can't you use of_property_read_u32?

I will investigate, and use it if possible.

Any outcome?

Yes, I have implemented Rob's suggestions. A new patch set reflecting this is coming soon.


And shouldn't the bindings be documented? Or are they only standard and
we hide the legacy one?


Yes, they are documented here:

http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/3536/

look in the cavium-i2c.txt file.

Thanks,
