![]() The sequence of sections is a bit confusing here: * we list the mux locking scheme for existing drivers before introducing what mux locking schemes are * we list the caveats for each locking scheme (which are tricky) before the example of the simple use case Restructure it entirely with the following logic: * Intro ("I2C muxes and complex topologies") * Locking - mux-locked - example - caveats - parent-locked - example - caveats * Complex examples * Mux type of existing device drivers While there, also apply some other improvements: * convert the caveat list from a table (with only one column carrying content) to a bullet list. * add a small introductory text to bridge the gap from listing the use cases to telling about the hardware components to handle them and then the device drivers that implement those. * make empty lines usage more uniform Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@bootlin.com> Acked-by: Peter Rosin <peda@axentia.se> Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa@kernel.org> |
