Hi Matthias,
It is a good idea to do compatible in such a way and put a warning the
device tree is out of date. People can find out cause soon if device
tree is old.
I modify the code as below:
+ /* Old dts had the components as child nodes */
+ if (of_get_next_child(dev->of_node, NULL)) {
+ parent = dev->of_node;
+ dev_warn(dev, "device tree is out of date\n");
+ } else {
+ parent = dev->of_node->parent;
+ }
Will you upload it in a separate patch?
If not, I can merge it in my patch series and upload v4.
Best Regards,
Ming Hsiu
