Well, how is this any better than what is already there? When adding a
new SoC, you will likely have to add another series of "||"s or "&&"s
with specific SoC IDs, when using this kind of API. This is not the point.
For now, all those things can be replaced simply with
of_machine_is_compatible() (except checks for samsung_rev()), but in the
end they need to be properly abstracted. The goal is to be able to add
support for new SoC, which requires identical steps to perform certain
things as already supported SoCs, without explicitly stating this in
driver code.
E.g. Exynos5250 is already supported, while Exynos5251 shows up. Let's
say it has exactly the same secondary CPU boot-up method as Exynos5250,
but to enter suspend mode, the same steps as on Exynos5260 have to be
performed. With any kind of per-SoC check API, you will have to add
soc_is_exynos5251() or is_soc_id_compatible(EXYNOS5251) in CPU bring-up
code and low-level suspend code, even though all the functional code is
already there.
Best regards,
Tomasz
