Hello,

I added the "devicetree-discuss" ml.

Hello,

I am wondering if it is okay to add .compatible entries for mpc8360 and
declare its data structure
to mpc-i2c.c

something like this:

{.compatible = "fsl,mpc8360-i2c", .data =&mpc_i2c_data_8360, },

static struct mpc_i2c_data mpc_i2c_data_8360 __devinitdata = {
     .setup = mpc_i2c_setup_8xxx,
};

or is the intended approach to match the closest thing to your CPU (in
this case mpc8313) ?

Yes, it is intended to use the name of the compatible device, see:

Thanks for the speedy response!

Two observations based on recent experiments to share with the ml:

1. The i2c-mpc does not take into account freescale APP note AN2919
   and for boards where the default dfsr setting violates condition #1.
   the i2c_transfer will exit with a -EIO due to timeout once in a while.

2. For boards that uses u-boot as bootloader, its fsl-i2c driver implements
   condition #1 checking. Thus using fsl,preserve-clocking is the way to go
   for now.
