I finally got an Ack on this, I am so happy :-)

As for the SoCs, there is Altera SoCFPGA Gen 5 and Gen 10 which uses this.
Then there is some TI SoC, but I don't know the model. Vignesh (on CC) would.
Then there is some ST SoC, but I have no idea what that's all about, sorry.

All these SoCs should be capable of tweaking the block to fit their needs
by just the DT properties. I believe they differ only in the FIFO depth and
sometimes someone is greedy and uses 4:16 CS multiplexer, which is an external
passive component, but that's all.

Would we need soc-specific compatible strings if this is the case?
