Thanks! I was not aware of this. Patch coming.

How does the devicetree code handle the vendor prefix in the compatible
field? For instance, the AD7414 has compatible="ad,ad7414" yet the
driver never mentions "ad", only "ad7414". Is the vendor prefix stripped
off while searching for compatible drivers?

On that note, it seems that adt7461 is listed twice in this file; once
as "adi,adt7461" and again as "adt7461". Is this expected?

Thanks again.

Cheers,

- Ben
