If you are arguing about const: ti,am625 - there is a bunch more other S/w systems that use compatibles for various purposes in addition to usage in userspace (test systems etc) that benefit. Unless there is a ARM64 wide trend to drop it, I don't see a reason to have a discussion on that. -- Regards, Nishanth Menon Key (0xDDB5849D1736249D) / Fingerprint: F8A2 8693 54EB 8232 17A3 1A34 DDB5 849D 1736 249D
