Thanks for your series! > dt-bindings: hwinfo: group Chip ID-like devices > dt-bindings: hwinfo: samsung,s5pv210-chipid: add S5PV210 ChipID So why not call it "chipid"?

If it is too specific, some other similar drivers won't perfectly match thus they will be placed again under dt-bindings/soc. I was thinking about name "socinfo", but on the other hand why limiting to SoC? I think there are many more devices which provide some kind of read-only hardware information (type, revision, product ID, model etc), therefore - hwinfo. Thanks for the feedback. Best regards, Krzysztof

I'm fine with hwinfo as the color of the shed. I don't think we should encode where the information comes from. Rob

It didn't apply for me. The Renesas bits should go via Renesas tree. I'll split the series. Best regards, Krzysztof
