What is a subsystem? With commit msg I still do not understand this. Maybe presence of hwlock defines it anyway, so this is redundant? Best regards, Krzysztof

I shall keep maintainers in TO list and rest in CC list. Question: With <Form Letter> , are you asking to add letter in this first patch ? I have cover letter, but it will get removed when patch gets merged.

Please help suggest and clarify. No, it's just template. Form letter...

Hm, not sure, maybe indeed hwlock would not be enough. However I think existing binding misses hwlock property. Best regards, Krzysztof

Adds qcom,shared-se flag usage. Use this when particular I2C serial controller needs to be shared between two subsystems. SE = Serial Engine, meant for I2C controller here. TRE = Transfer Ring Element, refers to Queued Descriptor. Example : Two clients from different SS can share an I2C SE for same slave device OR their owned slave devices. Assume I2C Slave EEPROM device connected with I2C controller. Each client from ADSP SS and APPS Linux SS can perform i2c transactions. This gets serialized by lock TRE + DMA Transfers + Unlock TRE at HW level.
