Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: mtd: Change the schema for nodename which includes "sram"

Node name which includes "sram" not only represents MTD devices, but also
lots of sram devices(eg, qcom,imem.yaml, rules in folder sram/*).

To avoid the conflicts, change the schema as:
- if node name includes "sram", must select "compatible" to match
(I have listed all "comptible" string in mtd.yaml by searching
drivers/mtd/* to find applicable drivers)
- if node name is nand/flash, use "nodename" to select.

Hello,

Tested a few devicetree nodes, which confirms:
"qcom,imem.yaml" which in sram/ not matches with mtd.yaml anymore.
All nodes include string "sram" must have "compatible" which listed in
mtd.yaml to be matched.

Current I just modify the rule for "sram" as it is definitely conflicting with
rules in sram/*. I have not much backgrounds on nand/flash whether they may have
similar conflicts.

You're right, it doesn't seem appropriate for the mtd binding to be
selected for nodes intended to match e.g. the qcom,imem binding.

The mtd binding is $ref'ed by other bindings, similar to how we do with
other bindings of common properties.

So, I think the problem with mtd is that this ($nodename) turns into a
"select" automatically, which causes this binding to match nodes by
name, rather than just those $ref'ing it.


We should be able to avoid the automatically created select from the
$nodename, and rely on $ref, by just adding:

select: false

Bjorn

Thanks Bjorn and Rob for your suggestion. Let me try and update one new
version.

Thanks,
