Hi Conor:

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, this is looking much cleaner. But it can't show every chip that
supports that driver.

As we know, Loongson is a family of chips:
ls1b/ls1c represent the Loongson-1 family of CPU chips;
ls7a represents the Loongson LS7A bridge chip;
ls2k0500/ls2k1000/ls2k2000 represent the Loongson-2 family of CPU chips.

Based on my previous conversations with Krzysztof, it seems that
soc-based to order compatible is more popular, so I have listed all
the chips that support that RTC driver.

No, It seems that wildcards in compatible are not allowed."
loongson,ls2x-rtc" itself was part of this patch series at one time,
but apparently it is not the right way to describe these chips.

Here is Krzysztof's previous reply:

Thanks.
