E.g. arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/r8a77951-salvator-xs.dts has
compatible = "renesas,salvator-xs", "renesas,r8a7795".

While we could add e.g. "renesas,salvator-xs-r8a7791", doing so
would inflate the bindings a lot.

And what to do when adding more DT overlays for expansion boards?
This would become unmanageable soon.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
