In the current implementation of __of_match_node(), it will compare each given match entry against all the node's compatible strings with of_device_is_compatible(). To achieve multiple compatible strings per node with ordering from specific to generic, this requires given matches to be ordered from specific to generic. For most of the drivers this is not true and also an alphabetical ordering is more sane there. Therefore, we define a following priority order for the match, and then scan all the entries to find the best match. 1. specific compatible && type && name 2. specific compatible && type 3. specific compatible && name 4. specific compatible 5. general compatible && type && name 6. general compatible && type 7. general compatible && name 8. general compatible 9. type && name 10. type 11. name This is based on some pseudo-codes provided by Grant Likely.
