There is no "another" model here, > but wildcard. There is no such device as cv18xx, right? No there is not. But I don't think there is a "base" model either. Just multiple SoCs named cv18<something> with apparently the same ADC. So actually I guess the discussion here is about the wildcard compatible. It feels strange to me to have no generic compatible either with a wildcard or with a "base" implementation (because there is probably none). So I guess the solution here is to just list a single specific compatible in the end. Thanks, Miquèl
