Alternatively, a second compatible could perhaps be introduced and the current

Best,
Hey,
I think that what Marc proposed as (1) is the clean solution. We want to
describe the HW as it exists. Yes we have zero docs, and the RLT 2.6 sdk
kernel is a pain to extract info from, yet we should move fwd with a
clean implementation.
breaking pseudo owrt dts ABI is imho acceptable. owrt users are well
able to reflash their units from uboot, they are at the end flying
without wings on bleeding edge. asking for some backward compat for a
de-facto broken dts mapping of the HW is imho a no-go.
