[Lu Yangbo-B47093] You mean we will not define soc device attribute for each soc and we will define attribute for each die instead, right?
If so, when we want to match a specific soc we need to use its svr value in code. If it's acceptable, I can try in next version.

[Lu Yangbo-B47093] I checked all the svr values in chip errata doc "Revision level to part marking cross-reference" table.
I found ls2080a and ls2085a were in two separate doc. And I didn’t find non-E version of LS2080A/LS2040A in chip errata doc.
Do you know is there any other doc we can confirm this?

[Lu Yangbo-B47093] The matches++ will never become NULL while it will return NULL after matching for all the members in array.

[Lu Yangbo-B47093] It's ok to define it statically. Is there any need to do that?

[Lu Yangbo-B47093] Ok, will unregister the device first. Thanks.
