I do think they have a useful purpose in representing the edges of chips in a convenient bundle and inject configuration. I too would like to see them less prominent in the code internals but they are useful as an interface. > Obviously we can't convert everything at the same time and it will take a > lot of time and effort to update all drivers to this new model.

I actually keep thinking that it might be easier to refactor the simple CPU plus platform SoCs into components than anything else - there's going to be gotchas in there but it seems like a useful string to pull at. Though realistically if we're going to get companies working on this it's probably easier to get DPCM people started off.
