This is an ABI break so you shouldn't be doing this, if the existing binding works it should continue to work.
The missing spi-max-frequency is the only part preventing old device tree to work with this driver. If the goal is to make existing dt binding work, I could patch dt using of_add_property in v2. I saw similar device tree patching for legacy bindings in pinctrl-single driver.

3. removing the old driver. I'll create this commit after 1 and 2 are applied to avoid possible rebasing due to any changes in the old driver.This isn't great as it means we have a period with two drivers for the same thing in tree which is at best going to be confusing. There's no advantage to splitting this out.
Got it. I'll add this patch in v2. -- Regards, Chuanhong Guo _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
