The compatible has to be "chipa-usart", "chipb-usart", "chipa-dbgu",
"chipb-dbgu" for the device to work as a debug console over UART
wher the chipa-<periph> is the device specific compatible
and the chipb-<periph> is the fallback compatible that the driver
actually uses.
Maybe putting the 2 compatibles as 2 enums is not right. I will rephrase
it as below.
- items:
- const: microchip,sam9x60-dbgu
- const: microchip,sam9x60-usart
- const: atmel,at91sam9260-dbgu
- const: atmel,at91sam9260-usart
- items:
- const: microchip,sam9x7-dbgu
- const: microchip,sam9x7-usart
- const: atmel,at91sam9260-dbgu
- const: atmel,at91sam9260-usart
Hope this is fine.
