Dropping this should be a standalone patch (with a Fixes tag I suppose).

Looking at what got merged:
      - description: Generic TPM 2.0 chips conforming to TCG PTP interface
        items:
          - enum:
              - infineon,slb9673
              - nuvoton,npct75x
          - const: tcg,tpm-tis-i2c

There's no need to add "nuvoton,npct75x" to this driver, since a
fallback to tcg,tpm-tis-i2c is required by the binding. Adding the
generic compatible however makes sense.

If there's a good reason to add it (like existing QEMU releases that do
not have the generic compatible, but claim to have the npct75x) then
please note why we should make an exception in your commit message.

You need not carry the NAK, the motivation behind patch is fine.

Thanks,
Conor.
