This patch series introduces support for the AAEON SRG-IMX8P embedded
controller (MCU). The MCU is connected via I2C and provides GPIO and
watchdog functionality for the SRG-IMX8P board.
The series includes:
- Device tree binding for the MFD driver
- MFD driver that serves as the core driver for the MCU
- GPIO driver implementing the GPIO functionality
- Watchdog driver for system monitoring
- MAINTAINERS entry for the new drivers
The drivers follow the standard Linux kernel subsystem patterns, with
the MFD driver registering the sub-devices (GPIO and watchdog) which
are then handled by their respective subsystem drivers.

Changes in v3:
- Renamed SRG-IMX8PL to SRG-IMX8P
- dt-bindings: add gpio-controller properties as required
- mfd: move struct aaeon_mcu_dev from header to .c file (private)
- mfd: use guard(mutex) and devm_mutex_init() for cleanup
- mfd: firmware version log changed to dev_dbg()
- mfd: add select MFD_CORE to Kconfig
- Kconfig: add || COMPILE_TEST to all three drivers
- watchdog: add comments explaining hardware timeout and WDOG_HW_RUNNING
- watchdog: remove unused platform_set_drvdata()
- watchdog: add a function to query the status
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260123-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-drive...
Changes in v2:
- Fold GPIO and watchdog bindings into MFD binding
- Drop OF_GPIO dependency in GPIO Kconfig
- Use __set_bit/__clear_bit/__assign_bit instead of atomic variants
- Various driver cleanups and improvements
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251212-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-drive...
