[PATCH v9 1/5] dt-bindings: devfreq: Add documentation for the interconnect properties

From: Sylwester Nawrocki
Date: Thu Nov 12 2020 - 09:11:11 EST


Add documentation for new optional properties in the exynos bus nodes:
interconnects, #interconnect-cells, samsung,data-clock-ratio.
These properties allow to specify the SoC interconnect structure which
then allows the interconnect consumer devices to request specific
bandwidth requirements.

Changes for v9:
- added Ack tags

Changes for v8:
- updated description of the interconnects property,
- fixed typo in samsung,data-clk-ratio property description.

Changes for v7:
- bus-width property replaced with samsung,data-clock-ratio,
- the interconnect consumer bindings used instead of vendor specific
properties

Changes for v6:
- added dts example of bus hierarchy definition and the interconnect
consumer,
- added new bus-width property.

Changes for v5:
- exynos,interconnect-parent-node renamed to samsung,interconnect-parent
