[PATCH] dt-bindings: arm: qcom: drop the superfluous device compatibility schema

[Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@linaro.org>]

The idea impressed in the commit b32e592d3c28 ("devicetree: bindings:
Document qcom board compatible format") never got actually adopted. As
can be seen from the existing board DT files, no device actually used
the PMIC / foundry / version parts of the compatible string. Drop this
compatibility string description to avoid possible confusion and keep
just the generic terms and the SoC list.

-  Some qcom based bootloaders identify the dtb blob based on a set of
-  device properties like SoC and platform and revisions of those components.
-  To support this scheme, we encode this information into the board compatible
-  string.
-
-  Each board must specify a top-level board compatible string with the following
-  format:
-
-  	compatible = "qcom,<SoC>[-<soc_version>][-<foundry_id>]-<board>[/<subtype>][-<board_version>]"
-
-  The 'SoC' and 'board' elements are required. All other elements are optional.
+  For devices using the Qualcomm SoC the "compatible" properties consists of
+  one or several "manufacturer,model" strings, describing the device itself,
+  followed by one or several "qcom,<SoC>" strings, describing the SoC used in
+  the device.

-  The 'soc_version' and 'board_version' elements take the form of v<Major>.<Minor>
-  where the minor number may be omitted when it's zero, i.e.  v1.0 is the same
-  as v1. If all versions of the 'board_version' elements match, then a
-  wildcard '*' should be used, e.g. 'v*'.
-
-  The 'foundry_id' and 'subtype' elements are one or more digits from 0 to 9.

-  Examples:
-
-  	"qcom,msm8916-v1-cdp-pm8916-v2.1"
-
-  A CDP board with an msm8916 SoC, version 1 paired with a pm8916 PMIC of version
-  2.1.
-
-  	"qcom,apq8074-v2.0-2-dragonboard/1-v0.1"

-  A dragonboard board v0.1 of subtype 1 with an apq8074 SoC version 2, made in
-  foundry 2.

   There are many devices in the list below that run the standard ChromeOS
   bootloader setup and use the open source depthcharge bootloader to boot the
