The intent is this provides the part number rather than a device tree
handle.  The devicetree handle is available via other routes if desired.

It's not easy to actually generate it.  Quite a few drivers do it by
querying the hardware to get precise model numbers.  Manufacturers
of certain devices have an irritating habit of switching 'compatiblish'
chips without bothering to update device tree blobs.
