Yep, not even close to mergeable, sent to the list mainly for comment
on whether to try and cram this into this driver or create a separate
driver for it.

I didn't do this as functionality wise it seems to basically be
PCA953X_TYPE, just with the alignment of the registers being very
different. I could add a PCAL6534_TYPE if you prefer.

The entries in pca953x_id[] appear to be ordered in the same order as
pca953x_dt_ids[], where the entries are grouped by manufacturer. This
chip is manufactured by diodes (as mentioned in the commit message), so
put it in it's own block following president. The manufacturers weren't
ordered alphabetically, so assumed ordered by when they were added.

Due to the different register spacing, I don't think these chips obey
any offset based rules. For the record, I've done a bit more work here
to get it returning the correct values for all the extended registers.
What I currently have is this (which I don't particularly like and
would be open to alternative implementations):


static u8 pca953x_recalc_addr(struct pca953x_chip *chip, int reg, int
off)
{
- int bank_shift = pca953x_bank_shift(chip);
- int addr = (reg & PCAL_GPIO_MASK) << bank_shift;
- int pinctrl = (reg & PCAL_PINCTRL_MASK) << 1;
- u8 regaddr = pinctrl | addr | (off / BANK_SZ);
+ int bank_shift;
+ int addr;
+ int pinctrl;
+ u8 regaddr;
+
+ if (chip->driver_data & PCAL6534_ALIGN) {
+ addr = (reg & PCAL_GPIO_MASK) * NBANK(chip);
+
+ switch(reg) {
+ case PCAL953X_OUT_STRENGTH:
+ case PCAL953X_IN_LATCH:
+ case PCAL953X_PULL_EN:
+ case PCAL953X_PULL_SEL:
+ case PCAL953X_INT_MASK:
+ case PCAL953X_INT_STAT:
+ case PCAL953X_OUT_CONF:
+ pinctrl = ((reg & PCAL_PINCTRL_MASK) >> 1) +
0x20;
+ break;
+ case PCAL6524_INT_EDGE:
+ case PCAL6524_INT_CLR:
+ case PCAL6524_IN_STATUS:
+ case PCAL6524_OUT_INDCONF:
+ case PCAL6524_DEBOUNCE:
+ pinctrl = ((reg & PCAL_PINCTRL_MASK) >> 1) +
0x1c;
+ break;
+ }
+ regaddr = pinctrl + addr + (off / BANK_SZ);
+ } else {
+ bank_shift = pca953x_bank_shift(chip);
+ addr = (reg & PCAL_GPIO_MASK) << bank_shift;
+ pinctrl = (reg & PCAL_PINCTRL_MASK) << 1;
+ regaddr = pinctrl | addr | (off / BANK_SZ);
+ }

return regaddr;
}

As I said, whilst the functionality of this chip seems to closely match
some of the others driven by this driver, the register offsets are
quite different and hard to incorporate cleanly in this driver due to
the way it determines register locations.

Quick and dirty debug. The code was included in RFC to help show the
path I was taking to include support for this device and is definitely
not ready for merging.
