You can have these for driver matching, but you still need SoC specific
compatible strings.

I think I'm missing something and hope you can help to clarify here. It
looks like the notion of v2, v3 should only be used if there's an indeed
an revision update on the controller IP itself, correct?
In our case, if the same revision of GPIO controller is used but instead
synthesized differently with different SoCs, then you are suggesting
here that it should be dealt with SoC specific compatible string, correct?
For example, for the GPIO controller on NSP where drive strength is
disabled, the compatible string in DT should look like this?
compatible = "brcm,iproc-gpio", "brcm,iproc-gpio-nsp";
For the GPIO controller on Stingray where pinconf is completely
disabled, the compatible string in DT should look like:
compatible = "brcm,iproc-gpio", "brcm,iproc-gpio-stingray";
Is that correct?
Thanks,
Ray
