Hi Shwan,

So I should just use 'fsl,<chip>-spdif" and list all <chip>-spdif
in compatible list?

I added 'fsl,fsl-spdif' just for those not-in-list chips, Vybrid
for example. So you think I should add all the possible chips to 
the list? But what if some chip I don't know right now that also
uses this spdif controller? Add them to the list later?

Thank you.
