Haiyue Wang 6b2e54f7ba ipmi: add an NPCM7xx KCS BMC driver
This driver exposes the Keyboard Controller Style (KCS) interface on
Novoton NPCM7xx SoCs as a character device. Such SOCs are commonly used
as a BaseBoard Management Controller (BMC) on a server board, and KCS
interface is commonly used to perform the in-band IPMI communication
between the server and its BMC.

* Nuvoton NPCM7xx KCS (Keyboard Controller Style) IPMI interface
The Nuvoton SOCs (NPCM7xx) are commonly used as BMCs
(Baseboard Management Controllers) and the KCS interface can be
used to perform in-band IPMI communication with their host.
Required properties:
- compatible : should be one of
"nuvoton,npcm750-kcs-bmc"
- interrupts : interrupt generated by the controller
- kcs_chan : The KCS channel number in the controller
Example:
lpc_kcs: lpc_kcs@f0007000 {
compatible = "nuvoton,npcm750-lpc-kcs", "simple-mfd", "syscon";
reg = <0xf0007000 0x40>;
reg-io-width = <1>;
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
ranges = <0x0 0xf0007000 0x40>;
kcs1: kcs1@0 {
compatible = "nuvoton,npcm750-kcs-bmc";
reg = <0x0 0x40>;
interrupts = <0 9 4>;
kcs_chan = <1>;
status = "disabled";
};
kcs2: kcs2@0 {
compatible = "nuvoton,npcm750-kcs-bmc";
reg = <0x0 0x40>;
interrupts = <0 9 4>;
kcs_chan = <2>;
status = "disabled";
};
};
