[PATCH 0/3] Fix RT5033 battery device tree probing
From: Stephan Gerhold
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 06:38:26 EST
At the moment, the RT5033 MFD and battery driver suggest that the
battery driver should probe as a sub-device of the MFD driver. However,
this does not make any sense since the fuel gauge part of RT5033 has its
own I2C device and interrupt line.
It was also documented as separate I2C device in the original device
tree bindings [1] (that were never finished up and merged) but for some
reason the code does not match the documentation (and reality). :/
Given other fairly critical mistakes like setting the wrong bits
in the regulator driver (see [2]), unfortunately I get the feeling
that none of the RT5033 drivers were ever tested properly. :(
This patch sets adds a proper of_match_table to rt5033-battery
and removes the rt5033-battery sub-device from the MFD driver.
There is no compile/runtime dependency of the power supply / MFD patch
so they can just be applied separately through the power supply / MFD tree.
With these changes, rt5033-battery seems to work fine on the
Samsung Galaxy A5 (2015) at least (it reports a reasonable
battery percentage).
