This reverts commit 5a3e59ce3acf2f52c8b4a6fc656c3b1e4a329f06, because the necessary changes were applied in the "staging: nvec: convert to use GPIO descriptors" patch. Signed-off-by: Marc Dietrich <marvin24@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
NVEC: An NVidia compliant Embedded Controller Protocol Implementation This is an implementation of the NVEC protocol used to communicate with an embedded controller (EC) via I2C bus. The EC is an I2C master while the host processor is the I2C slave. Requests from the host processor to the EC are started by triggering a gpio line. There is no written documentation of the protocol available to the public, but the source code[1] of the published nvec reference drivers can be a guide. This driver is currently only used by the AC100 project[2], but it is likely, that other Tegra boards (not yet mainlined, if ever) also use it.
