+* Andestech Processor Binding
+
+This binding specifies what properties must be available in the device tree
+representation of a Andestech Processor Core, which is the root node in the
+tree.
+
+Required properties:
+
+       - compatible:
+               Usage: required
+               Value type: <string>
+               Definition: should be one of:
+                       "andestech,n13"
+                       "andestech,n15"
+                       "andestech,d15"
+                       "andestech,n10"
+                       "andestech,d10"
+                       "andestech,nds32v3"
Based on https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/27/1290, this should say that
the device tree should always list 'andestech,nds32v3' as the most
generic 'compatible' value and list exactly one of the others in
addition.

I will remove the others and just left "andestech,nds32v3" in here.
No, is not what we want here, the CPU node should list exactly which core
is used, what we need in the description is a clarification that
andestech,nds32v3 must be used in addition to the more specific
string.
Hi, Arnd:

Sorry I still don't get your point. Do you mean we should always use
compatible = "andestech,n13", "andestech,nds32v3";
instead of
compatible = "andestech,n13";

And I need to add the description in this document.
