Is the 'x' part of a particular product name, or is this a class of
devices?

It's preferable to have a specific string which another similar variants
can claim compatibility with (while also additionally having a more
specific string), as this makes it possible to handle variants more
specially in future, target workarounds, etc.

How many? What are they for?

These all looks fine.

I can see why the sane values for these may differ between boards.

However, why can the kernel not decide the report rate? This doesn't
sound like something that needs to vary per-board.

Also, s/_/-/ in property names, please.

Use of_property_read_u32, it'll handle endianness conversion for you.

Use of of_get_property is almost always wrong.
