Hrrrum; I think this is a good idea, but I'm not thrilled with the approach. Here are my concerns: - Determining that linux,stdout-path points to a PSC should should be done in common code. It's useful for all 5200 boards, not just the Efika. (However, if 'failsafe' processing is efika specific, then it can stay in efika.c). This might be best done within the PSC driver itself, but I'm not sure. - Recognizing a psc node should be done by inspecting the compatible property, not by device_type and model properties.
