From cbd484f0eb5acf46f928bd0a104617582ec82606 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Walter Lozano Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 01:10:14 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] dm: doc: update of-plat with new phandle support Update documentation to reflect the new phandle support when OF_PLATDATA is used. Now phandles are implemented as pointers to U_BOOT_DEVICE, which makes it possible to get a pointer to the actual device.
