Heh, and I already asked for this at v2!
Do you need to see SoC series in there, or you are looking for specific structure in device tree, I have looked all the preceding hwlock drivers and its inline with what they have in there.
e.g. + const: brcm,brcmstb-7445-sun-top-ctrl-semaphore
That's wasting my time, read again v2 feedback.
Can you please point me to an example?
NAK
Best regards,
Krzysztof
