Commit 25b892b5 ("ARM: dts: arm: Update register-bit-led nodes
'reg' and node names") added a 'reg' property to nodes. This change has
the side effect of changing how the kernel generates the device name.
The assumption was a translatable 'reg' address is unique. However, in
the case of the register-bit-led binding (and a few others) that is not
the case. The 'mask' property must also be used in this case to make a
unique device name.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
