[PATCH] checkpatch: add DT compatible string documentation check

[PATCH] checkpatch: add DT compatible string documentation check

[Rob Herring]

From: Rob Herring <rob.herring-bsGFqQB8/DxBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org>

This adds a simple check that any compatible strings in DeviceTree dts
files are present in Documentation/devicetree/bindings. This should be a
temporary check until we have more sophisticated binding schema checking.

I believe there needs to be a \+\. in the brackets
for lines like:

arch/c6x/boot/dts/tms320c6678.dtsi: compatible = "ti,c64x+timer64";
and
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc8313erdb.dts: compatible = "fsl,sec2.2", "fsl,sec2.1",

Perhaps the egrep should be grep -E

I think we don't really want '+' (or '_') in compatible strings. That
would really a check against the documentation versus whether the dts
matches the documentation. So I probably should add a separate check
on use of documented, but deprecated compatible strings. Ideally, that
check would be on the binding doc, but since they are unstructured
currently, we'd have to do it on dts files.

Yes, indeed.

What about lines like:
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/kmeter1.dts:  compatible = "ucc_geth";

I didn't say we don't have them, but for new bindings we want to flag
things like this. It is fine if new dts files use those existing
bindings, but no one should be creating new bindings with the deprecated
style. The problem is that I can't really automate this check on the
binding documentation until we move to schema based bindings (which
won't be soon). So I would like to warn if dts files use deprecated
styles. I don't expect this to be a frequent occurrence.
