+Drive a GPIO line that can be used to restart the system from a restart
+handler.
+
+This binding supports level and edge triggered reset. At driver load
+time, the driver will request the given gpio line and install a restart
+handler. If the optional properties 'open-source' is not found, the GPIO line
+will be driven in the inactive state. Otherwise its not driven until
+the restart is initiated.
+
+When the system is restarted, the restart handler will be invoked in
+priority order. The gpio is configured as an output, and driven active,
+triggering a level triggered reset condition. This will also cause an
+inactive->active edge condition, triggering positive edge triggered
+reset. After a delay specified by active-delay, the GPIO is set to
+inactive, thus causing an active->inactive edge, triggering negative edge
+triggered reset. After a delay specified by inactive-delay, the GPIO
+is driven active again. After a delay specified by wait-delay, the
+restart handler completes allowing other restart handlers to be attempted.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "gpio-restart".
+- gpios : The GPIO to set high/low, see "gpios property" in
+ Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt. If the pin should be
+ low to reset the board set it to "Active Low", otherwise set
+ gpio to "Active High".
+
+Optional properties:
+- open-source : Treat the GPIO as being open source and defer driving
+ it to when the restart is initiated. If this optional property is not
+ specified, the GPIO is initialized as an output in its inactive state.
+- priority : A priority ranging from 0 to 255 (default 128) according to
+ the following guidelines:
+ 0: Restart handler of last resort, with limited restart
+ capabilities
+ 128: Default restart handler; use if no other restart handler is
+ expected to be available, and/or if restart functionality is
+ sufficient to restart the entire system
+ 255: Highest priority restart handler, will preempt all other
+ restart handlers
+- active-delay: Delay (default 100) to wait after driving gpio active [ms]
+- inactive-delay: Delay (default 100) to wait after driving gpio inactive [ms]
+- wait-delay: Delay (default 3000) to wait after completing restart
+ sequence [ms]
+
+Examples:
+
+gpio-restart {
+ compatible = "gpio-restart";
+ gpios = <&gpio 4 0>;
+ priority = <128>;
+ active-delay = <100>;
+ inactive-delay = <100>;
+ wait-delay = <3000>;
+};
