Re: Re: [PATCH v4 1/2] dt-bindings: hwmon: Add Eswin EIC7700 PVT sensor

Hi Sashiko,

Thank you very much for your detailed review. We appreciate the feedback.

I am planning to update the next revision as follows. Would this be
acceptable?

YAML:
-  label:
-    enum:
-      - pvt0
-      - pvt1
+  label: true

required:
  - compatible
  - reg
  - clocks
  - interrupts
- - label

Driver:
 static int eic7700_pvt_create_hwmon(struct pvt_hwmon *pvt)
 {
-   struct device *dev = pvt->dev;
-   struct device_node *np = dev->of_node;
-   const char *node_label;
-   int type;
-   const char *names[2] = {"soc_pvt", "ddr_pvt"};
-
-   if (of_property_read_string(np, "label", &node_label)) {
-       dev_err(dev, "Missing 'label' property in DTS node\n");
-       return -EINVAL;
-   }
-
-   if (strcmp(node_label, "pvt0") == 0) {
-       type = 0;
-   } else if (strcmp(node_label, "pvt1") == 0) {
-       type = 1;
-   } else {
-       dev_err(pvt->dev, "Unsupported label: %s\n", node_label);
-       return -EINVAL;
-   }
+   const char *name = "pvt";
+
+   of_property_read_string(pvt->dev->of_node, "label", &name);
 
-   pvt->hwmon = devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info(pvt->dev, names[type],
+   pvt->hwmon = devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info(pvt->dev, name,
                              pvt, &pvt_hwmon_info,
                              NULL);

I will add "#thermal-sensor-cells" to the required list in the next
revision.
