Merge tag 'omap-for-v4.7/auxdata-signed' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap into next/fixes-non-critical Merge "non urgent auxdata fix for v4.7 merge window" from Tony Lindgren: Device tree auxdata handling fix that allows a match based on the compatible string if no exact match based on the IO address is found. This leaves out the need to patch auxdata for each driver when adding new SoCs. And it also reprotedly fixes the issue of passing auxdata to a child if the parent instantiates the child from DT as discussed in the "[PATCH] of/platform: Allow secondary compatible match in of_dev_lookup" mailing list thread. As a minimal use case, let's also convert omap pinctrl auxdatato use a generic match. There is no need to get this in to the v4.6-rc cycle and it can wait for v4.7 merge window. Note that these changes have now been sitting in Linux next for about two weeks so far as I wanted to make sure no new issues are popping up. * tag 'omap-for-v4.7/auxdata-signed' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap: ARM: OMAP2+: Simplify auxdata by using the generic match of/platform: Allow secondary compatible match in of_dev_lookup
