Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: dt-bindings: ocotp: deprecate barebox,provide-mac-address
Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2023 14:23:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230911122356.2709296-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

While we'll continue to support barebox,provide-mac-address, new boards
should prefer using the upstream NVMEM binding for describing the MAC address.

Add an example to the documentation.
