I am sorry, I'm definitely not ignoring reviews and I'm actually
trying to understand and fix my mistakes.
This reply refers to v3, but in v4 you reviewed earlier today I added
reset table support in the driver, therefore in v4 those constants are
IDs instead of bits (and it should help cleanup the other MediaTek
existing bindings if deemed necessary).
If they're IDs that describe actual hardware capabilities, shouldn't
they be located under devicetree/? (Again, I understood my mistake in
v3, but in v4 it should be fixed).
I feel like I am missing something that's very clear to experienced
kernel devs about the boundary between kernel sources and device
trees, but I can't seem to figure out what exactly. I'll try reading
the kernel docs again.
Thank you for your time and patience.
