+Subject: [PATCH] base: soc: Introduce soc_device_match() interface
+
+We keep running into cases where device drivers want to know the exact
+version of the a SoC they are currently running on. In the past, this has
+usually been done through a vendor specific API that can be called by a
+driver, or by directly accessing some kind of version register that is
+not part of the device itself but that belongs to a global register area
+of the chip.
+
+Common reasons for doing this include:
+
+- A machine is not using devicetree or similar for passing data about
+ on-chip devices, but just announces their presence using boot-time
+ platform devices, and the machine code itself does not care about the
+ revision.
+
+- There is existing firmware or boot loaders with existing DT binaries
+ with generic compatible strings that do not identify the particular
+ revision of each device, but the driver knows which SoC revisions
+ include which part.
+
+- A prerelease version of a chip has some quirks and we are using the same
+ version of the bootloader and the DT blob on both the prerelease and the
+ final version. An update of the DT binding seems inappropriate because
+ that would involve maintaining multiple copies of the dts and/or
+ bootloader.
+
+This patch introduces the soc_device_match() interface that is meant to
+work like of_match_node() but instead of identifying the version of a
+device, it identifies the SoC itself using a vendor-agnostic interface.
+
+Unlike of_match_node(), we do not do an exact string compare but instead
+use glob_match() to allow wildcards in strings.
