The following patch changed the PFUZE100 swbst register bit definitions
and broke PMIC configuration on multiple boards, at least on the novena
and gw_ventana. This patch fixes it.
Ok we missed this in the review. But as I can see it broken only the two
boards, you mentioned.

The intentions are good, but this patch fixes one thing and breaks the
another one, I would prefer avoid this.
'git grep -n SWBST_MODE'
As I can see, you can fix the issue for multiple boards by update only
two lines in those two boards, which you mentioned.
So why you moving back those definitions, since they are now used in
more places?
The line suggested by Peng is good enough to call it 'fix' for your
boards:
(SWBST_MODE_AUTO << SWBST_MODE_SHIFT)
OK, so instead of fixing the patch which introduced a bug, we're supposed
to be fixing the fallout from that. I cannot say I'm very happy with
this sort of handling of a bug and with the testing this particular
change received.
You are right, the mentioned patch breaks your boards, and we missed
this in the review as I mentioned - sorry for that.
But for now, there is also other code based on those definitions, so you
can not just revert only this particular change and ignore the rest -
because it breaks the new code? Should we all work in this way?
This is even worse then -- the patch adds code which uses the changed macros,
but doesn't fix the existing users. This should not happen again and it'd be
very nice if the author actually checked when digging in /include and changing
some macros there if this might affect someone.
Ok, but as you could check in this example, even recompile all boards
with such kind of 'new patch' - will not tell you what is wrong, because
it doesn't break the build...
As a custodian I'm not able to test everything, especially when I don't
have the hardware for it. Moreover I trust people who are working for
this project and I can imagine that they test the code.
I don't expect you to test anything in this case, other but possibly compile
testing the stuff, don't get me wrong.
Besides, seeing how this patch already needed another patch to make it
complete and how it now needs more patches to fix the boards which it
broke, I am really disappointed.
I can't understand what is the problem. You send new patch with two
simple lines - it fixes your issue and doesn't break the existing PMIC
driver. I think, this is what we need here.
I did that. And unfortunatelly, it turns out we have really no other option
now, than to fix the boards. Sigh ...
But isn't this also an important part of our job?
I don't know why we discuss about this...
Found bug? Can fix?
Then send a patch and don't blame the people for a bugs - it's natural.
Don't cry if got a comments - this is the Open Source project:)
I hope you don't get me wrong.
Have a nice weekend! - I'm starting it right now:)
