Why do you put fallback to contains? It does not make sense. You want to
check for containing the device compatible.

Many other bindings are the same.

No, we do not talk about such bindings. We talk about fallbacks. Using
contains for other cases is redundant, so why even bringing them up here?

No, it's not. Your code is equivalent to old handling of j784s4.
Contains is totally irrelevant here.

NAK.
