In the case of Renesas R-Car hardware we know that there are generations of
SoCs, e.g. Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen 3. But beyond that its not clear what the
relationship between IP blocks might be. For example, I believe that
r8a7779 is older than r8a7778 but that doesn't imply that the latter is a
descendant of the former or vice versa.

We can, however, by examining the documentation and behaviour of the
hardware at run-time observe that the current driver implementation appears
to be compatible with the IP blocks on SoCs within a given generation.

For the above reasons and convenience when enabling new SoCs a
per-generation fallback compatibility string scheme being adopted for
drivers for Renesas SoCs.

Does it make sense to add a new family-specific compatible value to a driver
that's unlikely to receive more users in the future? More recent SoCs use
renesas,irqc.

If the answer is yes, do we want one for SH/R-Mobile too?

And now we have three compatible values to list...

If that's the case, then no. Please don't go crazy with your generic 
strings. I don't mind them, but I don't know that I'd call it best 
practice.

Understood. I do not see any new users of this driver on the horizon
and given the above I withdraw this patch.
