The generic Qualcomm Oryon CPU compatible used by the Kaanapali
SoC is deprecated and incorrect since it uses a single compatible
to describe two different core variants. It is now replaced with
two different core-specific compatibles based on MIDR part and
variant number.

CPUS 0-5:
MIDR_EL1[PART_NUM] - 0x2
MIDR_EL1[VARIANT] - 0x2

CPUS 6-7:
MIDR_EL1[PART_NUM] - 0x2
MIDR_EL1[VARIANT] - 0x3

I explained you in off-list communication what you have to do - this
MUST go via fixes and you MUST annotate that.

Where did you describe that? Nothing in cover letter, nothing here.


IIRC, you said this can't go in and later remembered that
it's still only in a rc and said it can go in. You then asked me
to make sure the commit message described the fix. Anyway
it looks like I missed your comment on funneling it through
the current rc.


Although then binding should go via fixes but it depends on patch in
next branch, so it cannot be done. Sorry, this waited way tooooo long,

By depends on linux-next, are you referring to the glymur device tree
change part of the series? I can always drop that in the next re-spin
though.

so you cannot make this change anymore.

Please drop it and you are stuck with the compatible you sent earlier,
which reviewers requested multiple times to change.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
