so I would actually prefer that we not duplicate the .driver.name in the .id_table. This one for example is non-functional since all supported hardware needs a specific .data entry. It will fail here:

        sp->variant = of_device_get_match_data(dev);                             
        if (!sp->variant)                                                        
                return -ENODEV;

Maybe we focus first on getting the base support for new_device etc. merged and use the Edison Bluetooth platform driver support in hci_bcm.c so we can do a real cleanup there. And then later add broad new_device support. Some of these instances should be just fine with never getting it since they require to many per device quirks to make things functional. A blind search+replace is not going to work.

And things like device_get_match_data() should work as well even if the hardware is listed via serdev_device_id. Drivers that are solely DT centric will need a lot more work before dynamic adding of serdev devices can happen.

Regards

Marcel
