Compatible "lantiq,pef2256" in the context of this file is confusing.
Two devices without parent-child having similar but different
compatibles, of which one is generic (covers entire device) and one is
function (codec) specific.

You cannot and you shouldn't. Parent checks children, not vice-versa.

But it does not matter. Why your device cannot be used in
lantiq,foobar-9999?
