OK thanks. Looking at the Motorola Linux kernel source, the child
device drivers do test for both revision and vendor and apply
different workarounds based on that. It also seems that CPCAP is

So based on the above, we should call it motorola-cpcap with just
a secondary device tree compatible string for the STE part numbers.
