+* SM5502 MUIC (Micro-USB Interface Controller) device
+
+The Silicon Mitus SM5502 is a MUIC (Micro-USB Interface Controller) device
+which can detect the state of external accessory when external accessory is
+attached or detached and button is pressed or released. It is interfaced to
+the host controller using an I2C interface.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "siliconmitus,sm5502-muic"
+- reg: Specifies the I2C slave address of the MUIC block. It should be 0x25
+- interrupt-parent: Specifies the phandle of the interrupt controller to which
+ the interrupts from sm5502 are delivered to.
+- interrupts: Interrupt specifiers for detection interrupt sources.
+
+Example:
+
+ sm5502@25 {
+ compatible = "siliconmitus,sm5502-muic";
+ interrupt-parent = <&gpx1>;
+ interrupts = <5 0>;
+ reg = <0x25>;
+ };

the standard virtio framework for network, disk and console devices,
though in our case the virtio framework is used across a PCIe bus.
+MIC PCIe card has a dma controller with 8 channels. These channels are
+shared between the host s/w and the card s/w. 0 to 3 are used by host
+and 4 to 7 by card. As the dma device doesn't show up as PCIe device,
+a virtual bus called mic bus is created and virtual dma devices are
+created on it by the host/card drivers. On host the channels are private
+and used only by the host driver to transfer data for the virtio devices.
+
Here is a block diagram of the various components described above. The
virtio backends are situated on the host rather than the card given better
single threaded performance for the host compared to MIC, the ability of
the host to initiate DMA's to/from the card using the MIC DMA engine and
the fact that the virtio block storage backend can only be on the host.

+w1_ds2406 kernel driver
+=======================
+
+Supported chips:
+ * Maxim DS2406 (and other family 0x12) addressable switches
+
+Author: Scott Alfter <scott@alfter.us>
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The w1_ds2406 driver allows connected devices to be switched on and off.
+These chips also provide 128 bytes of OTP EPROM, but reading/writing it is
+not supported. In TSOC-6 form, the DS2406 provides two switch outputs and
+can be provided with power on a dedicated input. In TO-92 form, it provides
+one output and uses parasitic power only.
+
+The driver provides two sysfs files. state is readable; it gives the
+current state of each switch, with PIO A in bit 0 and PIO B in bit 1. The
+driver ORs this state with 0x30, so shell scripts get an ASCII 0/1/2/3 to
+work with. output is writable; bits 0 and 1 control PIO A and B,
+respectively. Bits 2-7 are ignored, so it's safe to write ASCII data.
+
+CRCs are checked on read and write. Failed checks cause an I/O error to be
+returned. On a failed write, the switch status is not changed.
