The Axiado AX3005 SPI controller is software-compatible with the
Synopsys DesignWare APB SSI 1.01a programming interface.

Document the "axiado,ax3005-spi" SoC-specific compatible with
"snps,dwc-ssi-1.01a" as its fallback. This preserves identification of
the AX3005 integration while allowing the controller to use the
existing DesignWare APB SSI support.

This SPI binding was previously submitted as patch 6/8 of the AX3005
v3 multi-subsystem series.

Following maintainer feedback, the binding updates are now submitted
separately to their respective subsystem maintainers, as there are no
cross-subsystem dependencies requiring them to be submitted together.

This submission contains only the AX3005 SPI binding. The corresponding
SPI controller nodes remain in the separate AX3005 arm64 Devicetree
series.

Changes in v4:

- Submit the SPI binding separately from the previous multi-subsystem
  AX3005 series.
- Expand the commit message to explain compatibility with the Synopsys
  DesignWare APB SSI 1.01a programming interface.
- Replace the AX3005-specific schema entry with a generic group for
  vendor controllers compatible with v1.01a.
- Place the new group after the vendor-controller group using
  "snps,dw-apb-ssi" as its fallback.
- Use an enum for the vendor-specific compatible so that the group can
  be extended with additional controllers.

Previously submitted as:

[PATCH v3 6/8] dt-bindings: spi: dw-apb-ssi:
add Axiado AX3005 SPI variant

Applied to

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git for-7.2

Thanks!

[1/1] spi: dt-bindings: snps,dw-apb-ssi: Document Axiado AX3005
      https://git.kernel.org/broonie/spi/c/e3775cbffaf0

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
