Most probe functions that do not use the 'compatible' string do nothing else than checking whether the machine is compatible with one of the strings in a NULL terminated table of strings. Define that table of strings in ppc_md structure and check it directly from probe_machine() instead of using ppc_md.probe() for that. Keep checking in ppc_md.probe() only for more complex probing. All .compatible could be replaced with a single element NULL terminated list but that's not worth the churn. Can be do incrementaly in follow-up patches.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
