We suspected this was the case, but we weren't sure.
I apologize for wasting your time.

Applied "spi: sh-msiof: Add compatible strings for r8a774[35]" to the spi tree

[Mark Brown]

The patch

   spi: sh-msiof: Add compatible strings for r8a774[35]

has been applied to the spi tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Please drop this patch, as there's no need to add explicit matching for these
compatible values. The family-specific compatible values (which the driver
already matches against) are sufficient.

While the patch is not needed if people list the fallback property it
also does no harm and provides a marginal documentation benefit in
saying that someone has considered if any special handling is useful and
decided that it isn't.

All true.

My rebuttal is threefold:
  1. Listing the fallback property is mandatory for new SoCs. We only keep
     the per-SoC compatible values in the driver for older SoCs that predate
     the introduction of fallback properties.
  2. Some harm is involved, in the form of increased kernel image size.
  3. When updating DT bindings for new SoCs, we usually add "No driver
     update is needed" to the patch description to clarify. Unfortunately
     that was missed here.

So good practice is always good practice, but I'd argue that it's not
bad practice to also explicitly enumerate all the documented compatibles
in the driver.  Being liberal in what you accept and all that.

Is this really a meaningful impact?

That's basically the same good practice thing, it's just documenting
what you're trying to do here with not putting things in code but
writing things in changelogs doesn't make them so!

My opinion that good practice is to document the per-driver supported
hardware by explicitly listing the per-SoC compat strings in the DT
binding document.

Then exactly which compat strings the driver matches on is really part
of the software implementation and it will most likely vary over time.

So my view is that only updating the DT binding document should be
enough in most cases when fall-back compat strings are used. I guess
other people see it differently?

Is it too much detail to let the MAINTAINERS file point out both
driver files and the DT binding files?

Cheers,

It's supposed to do that already.  All I'm saying here is that the patch
doesn't seem like something that needs actively reverting since it's a
perfectly valid and even potentially useful change to make.

Thanks for clarifying the inclusion of DT bindings in the MAINTAINER
file. To escape any sort of conflict I will happily let you and Geert
discuss what is potentially useful or not! =)

Nevertheless I agree that reverting this rather harmless change seems
a bit overly aggressive.

Cheers,

Applied "spi: sh-msiof: Add r8a774[35] to the compatible list" to the spi tree

[Mark Brown]

The patch

   spi: sh-msiof: Add r8a774[35] to the compatible list

has been applied to the spi tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
