This mainly implements detection of these devices and will allow secondary drivers to work on such machines. The identification is DMI-based with a vendor specific way to tell them apart in a reliable way. Drivers for LEDs and Watchdogs will follow to make use of that platform detection. There is also some code to allow secondary drivers to find GPIO memory, that needs to be in place because the pinctrl drivers do not come up.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
