I think compatible string should be considered case by case. For example, If compatible = "samsung,g2d-3.0" is added to exynos4210.dtsi, it'd be reasonable. But what if that compatible string is added to exynos4.dtsi?. This case isn't considered for exynos4412 SoC with v4.1. So at least shouldn't that compatible string include SoC version so that that can be added to proper dtsi file? And I'm not sure how the ip version should be dealt with as of now:( Really enough to know the ip version implicitly(ie. exynos4412 string means implicitly that its g2d ip version is v4.1 so its device driver refers to the necessary data through of_device_id's data)? > I think, just g2d is enough.
