(not that it bothers me much) Thanks for reminding me! At that time, the rename was considered too intrusive, compared to the slim benefit. However, if we're renaming the files anyway, and thus causing a (temporary) inconvenience for the user, I think this is a good moment to get rid of the "(h3|m3|m3n)" redundancy in the DTS naming scheme (unfortunately we cannot do that for the "renesas,(h3|m3|m3n)ulcb" compatible values). Hence for R-Car H3, I will move forward the rename of the DTS files, so all renames happen in the same kernel release time frame. Regarding the R-Car V3HSK and V3MSK boards, dropping the "v3m" resp. "v3h" from r8a77970-v3msk.dts resp. r8a77980-v3hsk.dts is IMHO different: the boards are not called "sk", and are far from identical, unlike "ulcb" and "salvator-x(s)". Renesas has lots of "sk", "rsk", and "evm" boards. Let's hope they don't plan any unrelated "ulcb" boards... > PS: [Thinking out loud] Need to get prepared for using two versions of > U-Boot scripts when switching between BSP and vanilla kernels on the > r8a77960 targets.
