Hi Sudeep,

Here, the interface is used to determine whether a port is in use or
enabled.
If we just use 'status', it cannot inidicates its own meaning by name.
What do you think?

How about "port_status" or "port-status" ?
The meaning of this status is a little board.
How about 'enable'? just a read-only entry.


In addition, I happen to have another problem when replace ioremap() with acpi_os_ioremap().

The driver selects 'M' in .config to compile.
The driver cannot be compiled if we use acpi_os_ioremap().
The compiling log is as follows:
-->
make -j80
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CC [M]  drivers/soc/hisilicon/kunpeng_hccs.o
  MODPOST Module.symvers
ERROR: modpost: "acpi_os_ioremap" [drivers/soc/hisilicon/kunpeng_hccs.ko] undefined!
scripts/Makefile.modpost:136: recipe for target 'Module.symvers' failed
make[1]: *** [Module.symvers] Error 1
Makefile:1978: recipe for target 'modpost' failed
make: *** [modpost] Error 2

The driver can be compiled if we selects 'Y' or export symbol for acpi_os_ioremap.
So we have to export symbol for acpi_os_ioremap.
I plan to do it in another patch, and not in this series in case of blocking the upload of this driver.
What do you think?
