Although I'm not sure if it's the "standard" way, we just added a
"home-made" node like this:
resetLED at c0018000 {
device_type = "leds";
compatible = "reset-leds";
reg = <c0018000 00008000>;
};
and then just get the info in the probe function for the led driver
we placed in drivers/leds/:
/* Get device info from OF tree */
np = of_find_compatible_node(NULL, "leds", "reset-leds");
if (!np) {
dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Could not find device tree node for reset-leds\n");
goto error_classdev;
}
if (of_address_to_resource(np, 0, &res)) {
dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Could not convert reset-leds device tree address\n");
of_node_put(np);
goto error_classdev;
}
...
At least this was all the information we needed from the device tree.
