I believe that the naming used by this patch is consistent
with the naming used by other shmobile-related bindings.

In particular, the scheme that has been adopted for
hardware where we do not have documented version (numbers) is:

<vendor>,<ip>-<version>

Where the SoC name as a version.


My understanding is that Olof is comfortable with this as per our discussion
of this topic last August: "[GIT 00/19 v2] Renesas ARM based SoC pinmux"
