commit 56aeb07c914a616ab84357d34f8414a69b140cdf upstream. MPP7 is currently muxed as "gpio", but this function doesn't exist for MPP7, only "gpo" is available. This causes the following error: kirkwood-pinctrl f1010000.pin-controller: unsupported function gpio on pin mpp7 pinctrl core: failed to register map default (6): invalid type given kirkwood-pinctrl f1010000.pin-controller: error claiming hogs: -22 kirkwood-pinctrl f1010000.pin-controller: could not claim hogs: -22 kirkwood-pinctrl f1010000.pin-controller: unable to register pinctrl driver kirkwood-pinctrl: probe of f1010000.pin-controller failed with error -22 So the pinctrl driver is not probed, all device drivers (including the UART driver) do a -EPROBE_DEFER, and therefore the system doesn't really boot (well, it boots, but with no UART, and no devices that require pin-muxing). Back when the Device Tree file for this board was introduced, the definition was already wrong. The pinctrl driver also always described as "gpo" this function for MPP7. However, between Linux 4.10 and 4.11, a hog pin failing to be muxed was turned from a simple warning to a hard error that caused the entire pinctrl driver probe to bail out. This is probably the result of commit 6118714275f0a ("pinctrl: core: Fix pinctrl_register_and_init() with pinctrl_enable()"). This commit fixes the Device Tree to use the proper "gpo" function for MPP7, which fixes the boot of OpenBlocks A7, which was broken since Linux 4.11.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
