Well, they do avoid the legibility issues that tend to plague device tree - I don't really mind if they're in the property names (as with regulator supply properties) or in the data but having something that is directly legible is a substantial win. Constants deal with this in the source but they make runtime debugging more painful which isn't ideal. --fZWh67R7a8iXbUAa Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJR+jAeAAoJELSic+t+oim94zkQAJ5lTteMeiZBwkZyS6hAsF7t o+V3EHASmYxcw8dj+OgXRx2RlmSzN/eSPYk0S3TW1hxBvi93tJGrw417rjmrYN7M sciDjwGaR7w79+/a1dZYkHMzVAdNf3krK8cCq2lh1rRhQD1H/+6BWsT+9ObrMbM3 Fy98Ed6h1IN7aKC+BKGl3PHQlCWDumz8dIEEjKIodARQvZWdLwzjzkgDrAUZoMeR C82CfkPm+Se1PLuPLArqX/2vYZGHFHORHrJKWew8VYQ/cxQ7x/BIG4zHU9ejcWS/ 0C+g6pmC85fCnzeOLNqKTxPPQe61XGukezYkVm+/m7vkr/YzrdsxcYOXadBHZjoG FF0ryXyYh/CXUDDHo3sjOGTIYxliRgCxlAgWQIJura+gGIV5nwuqDQem1OAM/622 CaQ6Kfc/P4LZ/Qo5AlYB35DpeSfuUI9ILfapgxWtVqLOYcjyu3AR2waiV/e0Vc+4 pxmn/qKasaxvDLycZ8l/SsgoEbsO1iiyci42YGZuiWkcNlbu4FC1u6PchD9xEVoH 2mS4zR/qbqC2puhvLuuvu6mTFcezWtSjUf+3DNTqlt/WZtLAVg875xL2fFBY5Wym L9qgyyrOhkB/wUa1Ie6TH1dXB/US6hiLmB5R1nrdSPUaqLnPnsV0ezDVRo3P0BJh LmsQsRCwDgXriZXbgip2 =pB8f -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --fZWh67R7a8iXbUAa--
