Date: Fri Aug 05 2016 - 09:12:15 EST


Adding spidev in the compatible list, let configure spidev from device tree
instead of C source code.

+spidev is a device driver to access to SPI devices using normal userspace I/O calls.
+To make an SPI device compatible with this drivers add:

+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "spidev".

+Example:

+spidev0: spi@0 {
+ compatible = "spidev";
+ reg = <0>;
+ spi-max-frequency = <1000000>;
+ status = "okay";
