 - fck_parent : Should contain a valid clock name which will be used as parent
 	       for the McASP fck
 
+Optional GPIO support:
+If any McASP pin need to be used as GPIO then the McASP node must have:
+...
+  gpio-controller
+  #gpio-cells = <2>;
+...
+
+When requesting a GPIO, the first parameter is the PIN index in McASP_P*
+registers.
+For example to request the AXR2 pin of mcasp8:
+function-gpios = <&mcasp8 2 0>;
+
+Or to request the ACLKR pin of mcasp8:
+function-gpios = <&mcasp8 29 0>;
