Just for the sake of correctness, msm8994pro is still allowed, if I'm not mistaken. > I don't see here much of pattern simplifying - dropping (pro)? really > makes little difference. Patterns are simplified by being explicit. E.g. in the previous iteration I completely didn't notice the intersection of the |p that I have added with the existing [a-z][a-z]? pattern. If you think that sa5200p should be disallowed, I can tune the numeric part of the pattern. And sc8280p / sc8280px should not be allowed in the first place, such platforms don't exist. -- With best wishes Dmitry
