[v2,1/4] dt-bindings: mfd: Add RZ/V2M PWC

  The Renesas RZ/V2M External Power Sequence Controller (PWC)
IP is a multi-function device, and it's capable of:
* external power supply on/off sequence generation
* on/off signal generation for the LPDDR4 core power supply (LPVDD)
* key input signals processing
* general-purpose output pins

Add the corresponding dt-bindings.

v1->v2: I have dropped syscon, simple-mfd, regmap, offset, and the child nodes.

I'm wondering if there is some other way to represent this, e.g.
using DT topology? Some regulator relation?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Hi Geert,

Thanks for your feedback!

Not that I can think of. With respect to power, this IP only generates
control (enable) signals for external regulators, it does not supply
power.
