It seems the thing that's called bwmon v4 is compatible with a number of
different platforms, should we add a generic compatible to the binding
as well, to avoid having to update the implementation for each SoC?

(I.e. "qcom,sdm845-cpu-bwmon", "qcom,bwmon-v4")

it seems pretty useful to have the "qcom,bwmon-v4" and "qcom,bwmon-v5"
compatibles, I tried these patches on a sc7280 device which has a bwmon4
between the cpu and caches (and also has a bwmon5 between the caches and DDR)
and the driver works with zero changes.


I am hesitant. I could not find BWMON IP block versioning in the
Qualcomm docs. Only the downstream sources had it. Therefore I think it
is more applicable to use this one as fallback for other boards, e.g.:

"qcom,sdm660-cpu-bwmon", "qcom,sdm845-cpu-bwmon"
(even if the number is a bit odd - newer comes as last compatible).

What's your preference?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
