v5 cover Make usb device-tree fixup independent of USB controller

Makes usb device-tree fixup independent of Controller type. This enables the usage of device-tree fixup as a common framework for EHCI and XHCI controllers

Sriram Dash (4):
drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: Move device-tree fixup framework to
common file
drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: Remove code duplication for
fdt_usb_get_node_type
drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: Add device-tree fixup support for
xhci controller
drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: fix return value of
fdt_usb_get_node_type

PATCH v5 2/4 drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: Remove code duplication for fdt_usb_get_node_type

In reply to Sriram Dash

Call fdt_usb_get_node_type() from fdt_fixup_usb_mode_phy_type() to avoid code duplication.

---
Changes in v5:
- reorder the functions and gets rid of the forward declaration
Changes in v4:
- Make minimal modification to code
Changes in v3:
- Move the duplication of code to new patch

IMO, above construct is correct. Originally, we proposed array of strings but later we changed to character array with terminating NULL entry for each element to incorporate your below review comment given in v3.
"My opinion is to use a terminating NULL entry and iterate over the array until you reach it."

PATCH v5 4/4 drivers:usb:common:fsl-dt-fixup: fix return value of fdt_usb_get_node_type

Quoted 1 line · Sriram Dash

What do you mean by "int ... is native (and widely used) return type" ?

It's just a signed type, that's all there is to it.

Ok that may sound incorrect, Shall I change the description as below:
"Changes the return type of fdt_usb_get_node_type from char* to int"
