Yes. I totally agree with you. In this patch I have not added a 
compatible for the shutdown controller for sam9x7. I have added the 
compatible of the pmc used in sam9x7 in the list of compatibles to use 
the right pmc driver in order to control the clk disable functions for 
the right pmc. The shutdown programming is no different, so no new 
compatible for sam9x7 (like microchip,sam9x7-shdwc). But the PMC is 
totally different than the other older SoCs, hence I have added the new 
compatible microchip,sam9x7-pmc in the list as it is defined in the 
drivers/clk/at91/sam9x7.c driver. Hope this is clear.
