[PATCH v3 2/3] ARM: dts: bcm2837-rpi-3-b: Add bcm43438 as serial slave

[Marcel Holtmann]

Hi Rob,

I know that hci_ll.c DT entry also uses max-speed for the naming. Is this something common we should be doing? Essentially it is not really max-speed. It is the operational speed that we are configuring. There is no down negotiation ongoing. Does it make sense to use oper-speed instead?

Are we otherwise fine with compatible string naming?

Loic, the hciattach examples list 3000000 as operational speed. Any reason why we should limit it?

Regards

Marcel
