v3:
Used the qcom,sdm845-pdc compatible for pdc node
Everything else isn't doing the weird old compatible thing. Why not just
add the new compatible and update the driver? I guess I'll have to go
read the history.
Marc Zyngier complained on v2 about the churn from adding compatible
strings for identical components, and I kinda see his point.
I agree that using the 'sdm845' compatible string for sc7180 is odd too.
Maybe we should introduce SoC independent compatible strings for IP blocks
that are shared across multiple SoCs? If differentiation is needed SoC
specific strings can be added.
Sure, I will perhaps add a qcom,pdc SoC independent compatible to avoid
confusion.
