Please either drop the old string, or don't add the new string.
For compatibility with old DTBs, the kernel must continue to support the
old string. So the old string will alone will work -- it's not necessary
to add the new one to DTs just because the kernel now supports it.
However, this DTB need not work with older kernels, so you could simply
replace the string with the new one if your aim is to remove instances
of "isil" to ensure consistency going forwards. If so, please mention
that in the commit message.
Additionally, please Cc the Tegra maintainers if you touch their DTs,
along with arm-soc. They both need to have some visibility of this and
might not be subscribed to the devicetree mailing list. You should be
able to find a list of people to Cc by using get_maintainer.pl.
Thanks,
Mark.
