So can I ask that we start taking this seriously and stop doing things which prevent Allwinner boards from being supported properly? Which would first involve dropping this very patch?
The driver still supports the old binding.
Having done breakage in the past (with "allwinner,sun7i-a20-mmc", for instance) is no excuse for doing it again.
I'm not sure which breakage we introduced with a new compatible: the old compatible is working just like it used to, and the new one is working like we need it to.
And especially I want to avoid this habit creeping into the arm64 world (thinking about the H5 here, which may be impacted by this very patch, for instance).
And again, if you looked at the entire serie, you would have seen that I took this into account.
