Don't add just mine. Use instead scripts/get_maintainers.pl. For small
patchsets recipients should get everything. For big patchsets it is
usually split, where everyone receive only cover letter. It's not the
case here...

If driver binds to only one compatible, it is expected to be the
fallback for all others. There might be exception for this rule but it
does not look like here.

I did not say to remove other compatibles, but to use one fallback for
all of them.
