This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled spi: efm32: use $vendor,$device scheme for compatible string to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: spi-efm32-use-vendor-device-scheme-for-compatible-string.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 12f6dd860cf8bf036c0bec38c00a53da71bcd43a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2014 15:51:50 +0100 Subject: spi: efm32: use $vendor,$device scheme for compatible string MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 12f6dd860cf8bf036c0bec38c00a53da71bcd43a upstream. Wolfram Sang pointed out that "efm32,$device" is non-standard. So use the common scheme and prefix device with "efm32-". The old compatible string is left in place until arch/arm/boot/dts/efm32* is fixed.
