+ARM Versatile Character LCD
+-----------------------------------------------------
+This binding defines the character LCD interface found on ARM Versatile AB
+and PB reference platforms.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "arm,versatile-clcd"
+- reg : Location and size of character LCD registers
+
+Optional properties:
+- interrupts - single interrupt for character LCD. The character LCD can
+ operate in polled mode without an interrupt.
+
+Example:
+ lcd@10008000 {
+ compatible = "arm,versatile-lcd";
+ reg = <0x10008000 0x1000>;
+ };

+DT bindings for the Hitachi HD44780 Character LCD Controller
+
+The Hitachi HD44780 Character LCD Controller is commonly used on character LCDs
+that can display one or more lines of text. It exposes an M6800 bus interface,
+which can be used in either 4-bit or 8-bit mode.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible: Must contain "hit,hd44780",
+ - data-gpios: Must contain an array of either 4 or 8 GPIO specifiers,
+ referring to the GPIO pins connected to the data signal lines DB0-DB7
+ (8-bit mode) or DB4-DB7 (4-bit mode) of the LCD Controller's bus interface,
+ - enable-gpios: Must contain a GPIO specifier, referring to the GPIO pin
+ connected to the "E" (Enable) signal line of the LCD Controller's bus
+ interface,
+ - rs-gpios: Must contain a GPIO specifier, referring to the GPIO pin
+ connected to the "RS" (Register Select) signal line of the LCD Controller's
+ bus interface,
+ - display-height-chars: Height of the display, in character cells,
+ - display-width-chars: Width of the display, in character cells.
+
+Optional properties:
+ - rw-gpios: Must contain a GPIO specifier, referring to the GPIO pin
+ connected to the "RW" (Read/Write) signal line of the LCD Controller's bus
+ interface,
+ - backlight-gpios: Must contain a GPIO specifier, referring to the GPIO pin
+ used for enabling the LCD's backlight,
+ - internal-buffer-width: Internal buffer width (default is 40 for displays
+ with 1 or 2 lines, and display-width-chars for displays with more than 2
+ lines).
+
+Example:
+
+ auxdisplay {
+ compatible = "hit,hd44780";
+
+ data-gpios = <&hc595 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
+ <&hc595 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
+ <&hc595 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
+ <&hc595 3 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+ enable-gpios = <&hc595 4 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+ rs-gpios = <&hc595 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+
+ display-height-chars = <2>;
+ display-width-chars = <16>;
+ };

+Binding for ASCII LCD displays on Imagination Technologies boards
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be one of:
+ "img,boston-lcd"
+ "mti,malta-lcd"
+ "mti,sead3-lcd"
+
+Required properties for "img,boston-lcd":
+- reg : memory region locating the device registers
+
+Required properties for "mti,malta-lcd" or "mti,sead3-lcd":
+- regmap: phandle of the system controller containing the LCD registers
+- offset: offset in bytes to the LCD registers within the system controller
+
+The layout of the registers & properties of the display are determined
+from the compatible string, making this binding somewhat trivial.
