I bet this should be more specific. Tomorrow there will be a new
version of this expander and then we will wish that we used
a more specific compatible for the first one.

Does this chip have any kind of product number on it?

Else I would be tempted to use the compatible "st,mfx-0000"
or something, indicating it is the first of its kind.

Seems fine.

Apparenly Rob thinks this should go elsewhere.

Let's discuss these extra GPIO flag bindings separately.
