I would prefer we have SoC ones to be future proof..

The h/w block is the same features and bugs in every single 
implementation? If not sure, better be safe.

I don't know that I'd go back and add SoC ones for everything though.

Yep, Mani seems to have done that, I will wait for that to get merged

Can you please extend this to add all the platforms that we currently
support?


PS. Didn't we have someone working on converting this to yaml?

I am not sure of the context, lets see what Rob has to say on this. I
believe we only need 1 compatible string here (whatever it is), as
this is just one version of the hardware we are talking about. We
already have 2 somehow and you are trying to add one more and I don't
fell good about it. :(

Rob has indicated that we should use a SoC specific compatible and I
agree with that. We are using both soc and generic one here and driver
will be loaded for generic one.

And why is SoC specific compatible required here ? Is the implementation on
sm8350 any different than the ones using "qcom,cpufreq-epss" compatible ?

FWIW, the same compatible string must be reused until the time there is
difference in the hardware. The compatible string must be considered as a marker
for a particular version of the hardware.
