Same IP in a different SoC > could be integrated differently, right? Yes absolutely there might be differences in these areas. But we can always add conditionals in the binding to take care of different cases later. My main concern is to avoid giving px30 too much importance just because it happens to be the first platform supported by the Linux driver.
