As it turns out more than just Armada 370 and XP support using GPIO lines as PWM lines. For example the Armada 38x family has the same hardware support. As such "marvell,armada-370-xp-gpio" for the compatible string is a misnomer. Change the compatible string to "marvell,armada-370-gpio" before the driver makes it out of the -rc stage. This also follows the practice of using only the first device family supported as part of the name. Also update the documentation and comments in the code accordingly. Fixes: 757642f9a584 ("gpio: mvebu: Add limited PWM support") Signed-off-by: Ralph Sennhauser <redacted>Patch applied for next with the tags.
You mean for fixes right ? The goal was to correct "marvell,armada-370-xp-gpio" before 4.12 is out.
