No, it is not ignored. This difference is specific to hardware and there
is no configuration/setting to be done from driver.

May be I have a misunderstanding here. Let's clarify it.
LAN8650 and LAN8651 both are two different variants but both implements
same functionality. The only difference is LAN8651 has "Single 3.3V
supply with integrated" where LAN8650 doesn't have this. This is
hardware specific difference and there is no configuration/setting to be
done in the driver specific to this difference in the LAN8651. So
basically the driver can support for both variants without any
additional settings.
LAN8650: https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/lan8650
LAN8651: https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/lan8651
The below link shows the difference between them,
https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product-comparison.lan8650.lan8651
With the above details, I would change the microchip,lan865x.yaml with
the below details.
compatible:
enum:
- microchip,lan8650
- microchip,lan8651
And in the lan865x.c, I would remove the below line because
.compatible = "microchip,lan8650" already supports for LAN8651 as well.
.compatible = "microchip,lan8651"
Let me know your opinion on this proposal? or do you have any
misunderstanding here?
