This compatible string with a different vendor prefix was added for a specific reason.
Please see the commit message of the following patch :-
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220511094024.175994-2-shreeya.patel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

We were very well aware that not documenting this was going to generate a warning so
we tried to fix that with a deprecated tag but it was NAKd by Rob. What we understood
from his last message was that it wasn't necessary to fix the DT warning.

Thanks,
