Amlogic T7 SoCs uses the same UART controller as S4 SoCs and G12A.
There is no need for an extra compatible line in the driver, but
add T7 compatible line for documentation.

You can delete this, I don't need a Co-developed-by tag for review
feedback.

Otherwise,

Perhaps it can be fixed on application, I don't know how the amlogic
maintainers operate.

Cheers,
Conor.

"Everything-Else" was the amlogic naming for the non-always-on power domain, but it seems
it's no more something used on new SoCs like the T7 family.

Anyway, the description is wrong, and it's a mess because we used "amlogic,meson-ao-uart"
for uarts on the Always-On domain, but here it's described as Everything-Else...

Lucas, is there AO_uarts on T7 ? if not drop this amlogic,meson-ao-uart for the T7 UARTs.

But if there's no more AO uart controller, you'll need to change drivers/tty/serial/meson_uart.c
and add a OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE() for amlogic,meson-t7-uart.

But still, why don't you use the amlogic,meson-s4-uart as fallback instead ?

+          - const: amlogic,meson-s4-uart

and update meson_uart.c if there's no AO uarts anymore....

That's probably my fault, I suggested the g12a in my reply to v3,
because that is the one from which the match data is being copied, so it
seemed like it'd make the most sense to me as the fallback.

btw Neil, is the "meson-gx-uart" a wildcard? Dunno the hardware, so
wasn't sure.

As mentioned on v (N-1), I am fine with this either. You can keep the
Ack Lucas with this change.

No, there is not an AO_uart in T7, as far as I can see from the code
and datasheet.

As S4 and T7 are the same as g12a, I thought it would be better to
just have g12a uart.
But sure, I can use S4 as fallback.
