We could, but I believe usage of soc_device_match() should be kept minimal, otherwise we could remove all compat strings but one and handle all differences in the driver with soc_device_match(). That's a topic I'd like to discuss face to face in Berlin. The recent new compatible strings show we have a problem, and we need to agree on how to address it. > Declaring it is compatible with renesas,rcar-gen2-scif is still good/needed > for the BRG (Baud Rate Generator for External Clock), which is not present > on e.g. RZ/A1H. Given that the RZ/G1[ME] SCIFs seem to be compatible with the Gen2 SCIFs using the renesas,rcar-gen2-scif compat string seems fine to me. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
