Other then the modalias, this is exactly the same as m10_bmc_info.

Why not set platform_data?

So like this?

+static struct spi_board_info m10_n5010_bmc_info = {
+    .platform_data = "m10-n5010",

+};

I don't see how that should improve the situation, but we might allocate
the board info on the stack and set modalias dynamically instead?

No, I mean that instead of have two *bmc_info's generalize the existing one.

This could be done by using the as yet unused platform_data field to hold the identity as a bit/enum in an int.

But the existing one is global/static, so it would need
to be moved to the function/stack, yes?


In which case we could as easily keep the existing approach
of modalias, and avoid changing both drivers/fpga/dfl-n3000-nios.c
and drivers/mfd/intel-m10-bmc.c ...
