According to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/mfd.txt:
- A range of memory registers containing "miscellaneous system
registers" also known as a system controller "syscon" or any other
memory range containing a mix of unrelated hardware devices.
NAVSS (NAVigator SubSystem) falls in the later case, it contains
unrelated blocks, like the UDMAP, ringacc, mailboxes, spinlocks,
interrupt aggregator, interrupt router, etc.
- compatible : "simple-mfd" - this signifies that the operating system
should consider all subnodes of the MFD device as separate devices
akin to how "simple-bus" indicates when to see subnodes as children
for a simple memory-mapped bus.
This is a bit confusing, but NAVSS is not really a bus, everything in it
can be accessed by the CPU via memory mapped registers (some sub devices
does not have registers defined, they are controlled via system firmware).

We don't need unique compatible for the NAVSS itself as there is not
much we can configure on the top level, it is 'just' a big subsystem
with all sorts of things.
I like to keep the 'navss' as node name as it gives human understandable
representation of it in /sys for example, easier to see the topology.
I just feel that the 'bus' does not really apply to what NAVSS is.
Probably my view of simple-bus is not correct.

Sure, but it does not hurt if they are clean ;)

OK, can I keep your Reviewed-by you have given to v5 if I do this change
for v6?
