That would make sense, however, it does not work, probably because:
arch/powerpc/kernel/of_platform.c:
32 /*
33 * The list of OF IDs below is used for matching bus types in the
34 * system whose devices are to be exposed as of_platform_devices.
35 *
36 * This is the default list valid for most platforms. This file provides
37 * functions who can take an explicit list if necessary though
38 *
39 * The search is always performed recursively looking for children of
40 * the provided device_node and recursively if such a children matches
41 * a bus type in the list
42 */
43
44 static struct of_device_id of_default_bus_ids[] = {
45 { .type = "soc", },
46 { .compatible = "soc", },
47 { .type = "spider", },
48 { .type = "axon", },
49 { .type = "plb5", },
50 { .type = "plb4", },
51 { .type = "opb", },
52 { .type = "ebc", },
53 {},
54 };
Suggestions?
BTW. phy's are also not on chip, but are usualy listed under "soc"
(ie. mpc885ads.dts). Or rtc chip connected to i2c in kuroboxHD.dts.
