or
(4) drop the fallbacks. We match against each compatible all the time 
anyway, so you could also simply do

  "rockchip,rk3036-spi" for rk3036
  "rockchip,rk3066-spi" for rk3066
  "rockchip,rk3188-spi" for rk3188

Maybe leave the fallbacks for existing socs, and just add the new ones 
without the fallbacks.

rockchip,rockchip-spi is not future proof ... i.e. in some future soc 
somebody might want to exchange the IP block against a different one, so 
being specific saves us from hassle then :-)
