Subject: Re: spidev instantiated from DT

Hi Geert,
Thanks for your clarification.
So the rationale is to keep fixed the HW description (that make sense).
If a "generic" driver is required, the specific device compatible statement
shall be added in spidev like:
{ .compatible = "lineartechnology,ltc2488" },
And if later a more specific driver will be available, the previous line
shall be removed.
Can you please confirm my understanding?
Bye.
