No, that's even worse. I doubt there is some universal, never changing 
QCom I3C master.

AIUI, "geni" is some firmware based multi-protocol serial i/o controller 
and we already have other "geni" bindings. So really, it's probably more 
coupled to firmware versions than SoC versions. If we haven't had 
problems with per SoC quirks with the other geni bindings, then I think 
using the same "geni" here is fine. But we won't be happy if we start 
seeing per SoC quirk properties.
