Will add this to commit msg > Hm, if I understand correctly: you might have later some future am6211.dtsi which includes am625.dtsi and in general is compatible with am625 but with disabled parts? It's as bit counter-intuitive - I expect compatible to be extended instead of overridden. But it looks also ok, if you build entire design around it. Best regards, Krzysztof
