Right now of_property_present() is just a wrapper around of_property_read_bool(). Semantically reading a bool fits better here though. :-) Feel free to fix that up while applying.

I am not aware of any current or upcoming reasons for adding such complexity, so I'd simply prefer to stick with a boolean. Should that need arise, I think this model would allow extension to express that.

I would expect that of_property_present() is used for properties which usually have a value, while of_property_read_bool() is used for pure bool values which can be present or not but must not have a value. I think a "bool" in terms of DT is simply a present or not-present property without any value? For example consider regulator-min-microvolts = <4200000000>; regulator-always-on; Then I would expect - of_property_present(..., "regulator-min-microvolts"), but - of_property_read_bool(..., "regulator-always-on") Does that make sense? :D > > Feel free to fix that up while applying. > > > > FWIW I don't really have an opinion if "qcom,use-guard-pages" is a good > > way to describe this in the DT.
