This patch series adds the rtc driver for the nuvoton ma35d1 ARMv8 SoC.
It includes DT binding documentation, the ma35d1 rtc driver, and device
tree updates.

The ma35d1 rtc controller provides real-time and calendar messaging
capabilities. It supports programmable time tick and alarm match
interrupts. The time and calendar messages are expressed in BCD format.

This rtc driver has been tested on the ma35d1 som board with Linux 6.5-rc2.

v2:
  - Updated nuvoton,ma35d1-rtc.yaml
    - Modified patch title and fixed typo
    - Added reference to rtc.yaml
    - Used unevaluatedProperties instead of additionalProperties
  - Modified rtc driver
    - Used dev_err_probe()
    - Removed ma35d1_rtc_remove()
    - Made other minor fixes

Hi Jacky,

I see you added soc@kernel.org to Cc for all three patches, which
has put them into the patchwork tracker.

Now that the platoform support is merged, I do not pick up patches
for other subsystems through the soc tree, so please drop the Cc
here.

You can post the the dts change along with the driver, but the
correct process is that the subsystem maintainer(s) pick up the
DT binding and the driver once the review is complete, and then
you send the dts changes to soc@kernel.org. Depending on the
platform, there may be a lot of conflicting dts changes, so this
way you can aggregate any patches for these files before sending
them to the soc tree for inclusion, while I then merge them
with all the dts changes for other platforms and any global
cleanup.

Dear Arnd,


Thank you for the detailed explanation. I now understand how to proceed.

I will remove Cc: soc@kernel.org from here. I apologize for any 
inconvenience

this patch series may have caused you and appreciate your assistance.


Best Regards,
