Could you please clarify in which cases reusing the compatible is
permissible? The list of compatibles at:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.12/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.yaml#L112
namely,
          - ti,am62-opp-efuse-table
          - ti,am62-usb-phy-ctrl
          - ti,am625-dss-oldi-io-ctrl
          - ti,am62p-cpsw-mac-efuse
          - ti,am654-dss-oldi-io-ctrl
          - ti,j784s4-pcie-ctrl
have all been reused for different TI SoCs since they all correspond to the
device functionality enabled via the CTRL_MMR System Controller registers.
The compatible "ti,j784s4-acspcie-pcie-ctrl" has also been added to the
list:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.12/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/syscon.yaml#L117
with the intent of reusing it the same way that other compatibles have
been reused.

Regards,
Siddharth.
