If you are going to use both, make sure the order is clear (most 
specific, best match first). Sometimes the chip names make that clear, 
but not here.

Any particular reason? We could just reuse the meson6 one since there
appear to be no code changes so far.

So Neil is essentially telling me they don't know whether there are any
differences in the IP block, so a separate compatible string was chosen.

No objection from my side, but a general clarification from device tree
maintainers when and when not to would be appreciated. (+ devicetree)

Cheers,

I prefer to add both the device-tree itself, so if there are differences
found later then it can be dealt with without rebuilding both the DT
and kernel.

It is nice to have the new ones added to the driver so that you know the
hardware choices in play.

I prefer to add both the device-tree itself, so if there are differences
found later then it can be dealt with without rebuilding both the DT
and kernel.

It is nice to have the new ones added to the driver so that you know the
hardware choices in play.

I'm not sure what the "right" way is (Rob?) but I think the usual way is
to add new compatibles when needed.

New chip, always define a new compatible. If you think they are the same 
or are close enough to function with the existing driver, then put both 
compatible strings in the DT.

Mark, with your ack, I could take these through the amlogic tree also.
Let me know.
