[PATCH v8 net-next 4/8] dpll: allow fwnode pins to attempt state change without capability bit
From: Grzegorz Nitka
Date: Mon May 11 2026 - 19:39:55 EST
Pins registered with an fwnode may have .state_on_dpll_set implemented
without advertising DPLL_PIN_CAPABILITIES_STATE_CAN_CHANGE upfront.
Requiring the bit for fwnode pins ties firmware description to driver
implementation details unnecessarily.
Relax the capability check in dpll_pin_state_set() and
dpll_pin_on_pin_state_set(): when a pin has an associated fwnode, bypass
the capability gate and let the ops layer decide, returning -EOPNOTSUPP
if .state_on_dpll_set is absent. Non-fwnode pins retain the original
strict behavior.
This is used later in the series by the SyncE_Ref output pin, which
relies on the fwnode path for state control.
