Re: [PATCH RESEND v7 0/3] Add support for vibrator in multiple PMICs

[Fenglin Wu]

Hi Dmitry Torokhov,

Can you help to review the series of the changes?
I knew that you left comment in patch V6 about moving shift and mask 
into a chip-specific data structure to avoid defining 'hw_type'. 
Actually 'hw_type' is added here to differentiate the SSBI vibrator 
module which doesn't need to read the base address from the DT and add 
it up in register read/write access, while SPMI vibrators in different 
PMICs may be the same HW but just with different base address, and we 
can use device compatibles instead of adding the chip-specific data 
structure for each of them by just updating the base address. See 
discussion here for more details:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20230718062639.2339589-3-quic_fenglinw@xxxxxxxxxxx/

I also responded here that having 'hw_type' would help us with a cleaner 
code logic instead of checking specific reg/mask for particular 
operations: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/8697d115-9aa7-2a1c-4d96-25b15adb5cca@xxxxxxxxxxx/

Let me know what's your final suggestion, if you insist that I should 
move the reg/mask/shift in the chip-specific data structure, I can 
update it even it won't be as clean as what it looks right now.
Thanks

Fenglin
