-This struct represents an hwspinlock instance. It is registered by the
-underlying hwspinlock implementation using the hwspin_lock_register() API.
+struct hwspinlock_device is a device which usually contains a bank
+of hardware locks. It is registered by the underlying hwspinlock
+implementation using the hwspin_lock_register() API.
 
 /**

-The underlying implementation is responsible to assign the dev, ops, id and
-owner members. The lock member, OTOH, is initialized and used by the hwspinlock
-core.
+struct hwspinlock_device contains an array of hwspinlock structs, each
+of which represents a single hardware lock:
+
+/**
+ * struct hwspinlock - this struct represents a single hwspinlock instance
+ * @bank: the hwspinlock_device structure which owns this lock
+ * @lock: initialized and used by hwspinlock core

+ */
+struct hwspinlock {
+	struct hwspinlock_device *bank;
+	spinlock_t lock;
+	void *priv;
+};
+
+When registering a bank of locks, the hwspinlock driver only needs to
+set the priv members of the locks. The rest of the members are set and
+initialized by the hwspinlock core itself.

+ * To achieve that, each physical lock must have a system-wide id number

+ * (num-of-locks - 1).
+ *
+ * In case boards have several hwspinlocks devices, a different base id
+ * should be used for each hwspinlock device (they can't all use 0 as
+ * a starting id!).
+ *
+ * This platform data structure should be used to provide the base id
+ * for each device (which is trivially 0 when only a single hwspinlock
+ * device exists). It can be shared between different platforms, hence
