btw, since you changed the compatible, the filename should have been
changed to match it.

So this is not what I had in mind by a "device". I was looking for a
compatible representing an soc in which this IP had been integrated.
A soc-specific compatible, rather than something generic, is requirement
for devicetree - we don't want various integrations of this IP to all be
using a generic compatible when there may be subtle (or less subtle)
differences between integrations.

I'm trying to come up with the syntax for enforcing having two
compatibles with your current one as the fallback, but I have yet to
come up with the correct syntax for that that works correctly.

Hopefully by the time you get some feedback on the driver side of this
submission I will have a concrete suggestion for what to do here.

This label here is never used and should be dropped.

Cheers.
