I am also reluctant to add "renesas,rcar-gen3-sdhi", because as we are seeing things are not so simple wrt to compatible. Can I clarify the proposal regarding "renesas,sdhi-mmc-r8a77470", would it be as well as or instead of "renesas,sdhi-r8a77470" ? And what is signified by "mmc" that is not implied by (some of the) existing compat strings? Perhaps stating the obvious: this feels a lot like the problem we thought we had with different Gen-3 SoCs/ES versions. And in that case we decided against using compat strings to differentiate. The main difference here seems to be that we need to differentiate between different ports on the same SoC.
