We already have > a binding for the LCDC. Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing: You're refering to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/imx/fsl,imx-fb.txt, right? I'm unsure what to do now. Should the two different bindings just be described in the same file? Should I stick to fsl,imx21-fb even for the new binding? (The hardware unit is named LCDC, so the name chosen here is the better one.) Please advise. Best regards Uwe

Except the reg and interrupt properties it is very confused about things. It exposes internal implementation details (like specifying verbatim register settings in the DT) and other properties are just misplaced, like the lcd-supply property that controls the panel power supply. I really don't think that trying to stay backwards compatible here is a win for anyone. Anyone willing to switch their systems running on a 15 year old SoC to the new DRM driver probably doesn't mind if they have to modify the DTS to make it work. Can we please let the FB driver die in peace and have a clean slate driver/binding for the DRM driver? Regards, Lucas
