Not all the world uses DT, this is a DesignWare IP so it's likely to get deployed widely - potentially on PCI cards and things like that.
It's not really new though, and we are only seeing the second user. Maybe this one just isn't as common as a lot of the other designware IP?
It's relatively common with newer companies - it's like UARTs, any company that's been around for a long time will have a homebrew IP already but places that don't (or get fed up with their existing IP) will tend to buy something in.
I see, but are any of the newer designs going to use platform_data? My general feeling was that the only places that still depend on that are legacy platforms and architectures.
