AMBA binding expects the primecell id in the binding compatible") - compatible : should be a specific name for the peripheral and "arm,primecell". The specific name will match the ARM engineering name for the logic block in the form: "arm,pl???" So I wanted to make sure either we follow that here(unlikely as ARM is not publishing this as standard primecell yet) or specify that it's exception here. Regards, Sudeep
