I would agree with Maxime. Currently all latest chip reset function is
compatible with the atmel,sama5d3-rstc.
So check compatible string is enough for now.
But of cause if we have other incompatible reset in future with new chip,
the structure like you said is needed.
We managed to avoid using of_machine_is_compatible() in all the at91
drivers. I'd like to keep it that way. It was painful enough to remove
all those cpu_is_at91xxx calls.
That's your call...

Also, using it is trying to match strings and will result in longer boot
times.
Have you looked at the implementation of of_match_device? If that's
really a concern to you, you should actually avoid it.
I agree: let's keep it simple and use of_match_device().

Ok. I will keep it as it is now: use the (match->data != sama5d3_restart) for the condition.

About the of_match_device(), I prefer to keep not changing the code and still use of_match_node().
Since of_match_device() is a wrapper for the of_match_node(). And dev->of_node and at91_reset_of_match is valid, so we can just use of_match_node() directly.

Is it sound okay for us?
