Subject: Re: spidev instantiated from DT
Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2016 20:45:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <006d01d254b0$3d010520$b7030f60$@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Geert,

Thanks for your clarification.

So the rationale is to keep fixed the HW description (that make sense).
If a "generic" driver is required, the specific device compatible statement
shall be added in spidev like:
	{ .compatible = "lineartechnology,ltc2488" },

And if later a more specific driver will be available, the previous line
shall be removed. 

Can you please confirm my understanding?

Bye.
