The IRQ is passed from device tree node. Say if the chip for some reason is not connected to any valid IRQ line the driver might end up requesting for a wrong IRQ line. So should I be validating the irq entry populated from device tree? Explicitly checking on chip ID helps to avoid wrongly populated Device tree data. > > +/** > > + * DOC: Palmas PMIC feature types > > + * > > Is "DOC: " normal kerneldoc?
