Even for common ip blocks, it is good practice to be specific about
the implementation. IP block details tend to change from one silicon
design to the next. Overly generic (optimistic) compatible value names
generally should be avoided. Instead, backwards compatibility is
achieved by newer devices claiming compatibility with older
implementations in the compatible list.
