[PATCH v3 0/3] i2c: Add Novatek NT726xx SoC I2C controller

[Nina_Kuo]

From: Ben Huang <Ben_Huang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


These patch series adds support for the I2C bus controllers on
Novatek NT726xx SoCs.

The controller driver implements the fundamental I2C read/write
operations and supports Standard-mode and Fast-mode.

Some I2C bus controllers on Novatek NT726xx SoCs are controllable by
stbc (Standby controller) and named as `stbc-i2c`s. These `stbc-i2c`s
are driven by stbc clock (12 MHz) and require the authentication to
stbc before any control.

The patch is tested with concurrent read/write operations on
2 different I2C busses for 1000000 times on Novatek NT72676 SoC.
Neither error nor data corruption is detected under this test.

  From Krzysztof's review of novatek,nt726xx-i2c.yaml:
  - Explicitly specify the unique compatibles "novatek,nt72600-i2c" for
    Novatek NT726xx SoCs
  - Modify `maxItems` as 1 for both `reg` and `interrupts` properties
  - Modify description and allowed values for `clock-frequency`
    property
  - Remove `minItems` for `novatek,hwmods` custom property
  - Rename, fix wrong type definition and add more description for
    `novatek,stbc-controllable` custom property
  - Remove `bus-enable` custom property
  - Add an example for dtsi declaration

  From Sashiko AI's review of i2c-nt726xx.c:
  - Remove flows related to `bus-enable` custom property
  - Add default value 100000 (100 kHz) of `clock-frequency` property
    to prevent from devide-by-zero panic
  - Add flows for handling ioremap() in nvt_i2c_use_case_feature()
  - Remove I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_QUICK functionality due to unsupported handling
    of 0-byte messages
  - Add flows of disabling IRQs in nvt_i2c_suspend() and nvt_i2c_remove()
  - Add of_node_get() to release the reference to device tree node in
    nvt_i2c_remove()
