What should be documented in this file? This is more a question to the
guys more familiar with arm in Linux. Currently the Linux kernel only
supports brcm,bcm4708 and all goes back to that one.

Hi Jon,

Why are you adding a "k" on the string here?  bcm5301k is not an SoC 
part number?

I was under the impression that all boards should be added to these
files.  We have been doing so for Cygnus and NSP.

Thanks,
Jon

Tracking exactly which boards are supported by the brcm,bcm4708
compatible string might be tedious, I tend to agree with just listing
the supported SoCs, and leaving the specific board compatibles to the
individual DTS files instead.

Ok, I'll simply add entries for NS and 4709 to this.

Hi Jon,

Yes, please only add SoC part number compatible strings, not board 
compatible strings.

Good - we have only been adding SoC compatible strings for Cygnus and 
NSP - not board compatibles.
