I would prefer not. Having driver names in bindings is an antipattern;
drivers should be free to change independently of the hardware or
bindings, and we should be able to create new drivers that handle
existing bindings.
Either a new compatible string should be allcoated, or one of the
generic bindings should be used. While we do have drivers for the
generic cases, the *-generic bindings are treated as a specification
that hardware can meet, and are not intended to change. They are also
there fore independent of Linux.
Thanks,
Mark.
