Maxim Integrated MAX3355E chip integrates a charge pump and comparators

enable a system with an integrated USB OTG dual-role transceiver to
function
as an USB OTG dual-role device. In addition to sensing/controlling
Vbus,
the chip also passes thru the ID signal from the USB OTG connector.
On some Renesas boards, this signal is just fed into the SoC thru a
GPIO
pin -- there's no real OTG controller, only host and gadget USB
controllers
sharing the same USB bus; however, we'd like to allow host or gadget
drivers
to be loaded depending on the cable type, hence the need for the MAX3355
extcon driver. The Vbus status signals are also wired to GPIOs (however,
we
aren't currently interested in them), the OFFVBUS# signal is controlled
by
the host controllers, there's also the SHDN# signal wired to a GPIO, it
should be driven high for the normal operation.


As multiple people have said, fix the spacing here.


You are the first to complain abou _this_ patch. If you don't have other
issues with this driver in which case you should have trimmed the reply at
this point), I'd like to keep my spacing as is. Thank you.

Your previous version was not "extcon-usb-gpio: add enable pin
support"[1] which has now been re-written to be max3355 specific?

No, the MAX3355 driver pre-dates that version. First there was a driver,
then I tried to re-use the existing stuff (there was no extcon-usb-gpio at
the time of writing my driver), then had to return to the separate driver
idea...

"So
what" and "I'd like to keep my spacing as is" aren't valid reasons.
Fix it, then I'll look at the rest again.

I'll consider doing that if you care to explain what's the problem with
my spacing. TIA.

You are mixing 2 and 1 spaces between words, don't do that.

Care to just explain why?

MBR, Sergei
