The compatible can be the same for both struct driver instances, while the bus will pick the right driver. I suspect we'll need SoC specific compatibles though to export the right set of clocks, so having the generic compatible is mostly to find these rpm clock controllers so that we know to skip registering the XO clock from the GCC driver and not some generic implementation of the driver. There's probably a subset of the clocks that's always the same between devices, so if we had to we could match the generic compatible and provide limited functionality. -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
