============

ACPI 5 introduced two new resources to describe GPIO connections: GpioIo
 | 
			
		||||
and GpioInt. These resources can be used to pass GPIO numbers used by
 | 
			
		||||
the device to the driver. ACPI 5.1 extended this with _DSD (Device
 | 
			
		||||
Specific Data) which made it possible to name the GPIOs among other things.

===========

The MFD devices register their children as platform devices. For the child

devices there needs to be an ACPI handle that they can use to reference
 | 
			
		||||
parts of the ACPI namespace that relate to them. In the Linux MFD subsystem
 | 
			
		||||
we provide two ways:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
	o The children share the parent ACPI handle.
 | 
			
		||||
	o The MFD cell can specify the ACPI id of the device.
 | 
			
		||||
  - The children share the parent ACPI handle.
 | 
			
		||||
  - The MFD cell can specify the ACPI id of the device.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For the first case, the MFD drivers do not need to do anything. The
 | 
			
		||||
resulting child platform device will have its ACPI_COMPANION() set to point
 | 
			
		||||
to the parent device.
