I agree about it I just mean that if you have the same board with 2 SoC which are pin to pin compatible detect the soc type will be usefull as the soc resource may not be the same
In that scenario, you would put all SOC specific data into one .dtsi file and all board data into another .dtsi file and then create a description for the combination using a trivial .dts file with two include statements. This is all solved outside of the kernel already, so there is no need for infrastructure in the kernel. Arnd
