[PATCH 0/4] mfd: stm32-timers: Make register definition more flexible

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Hello,

I'm not sure that everyone will agree the changes in here are
worthwhile, but I like them. One surprise is that this makes the
generated code for drivers/pwm/pwm-stm32.c more compact (see patch 4 for
a bloat-o-meter statistic). I'm surprised because it boils down to gcc
not noticing that

	mask = ((((1UL))) << (1 + 4 * ((1) - 1))) << (ch * 4);

is equivalent to

	mask = ((((1UL))) << (1 + 4 * ((ch + 1) - 1)));

.

I'm unsure what to suggest for how to merge this series. I have some
further changes on my agenda to drivers/pwm/pwm-stm32.c, so either
merging this via pwm or a stable branch would be great for me.

Best regards
Uwe
