The syntax of compatible property in DT is to mention the Most specific
match to most generic match.
Since AM335x is the platform with latest IP revision, add it 1st in
the device id table.
I don't understand why? The order should not matter at all.
I've tried to follow the thread you had with Mark on the v2, but AFAIK,
you've never answered to his latest question.
Moreover, checking the differences between the Davinci and the am3352
RTC IP, I would not claim that both are compatible.
Sure you can use the am3352 with the Davinci driver, but you will lose
the wakeup functionality without even being notify about that.
For my point of view, compatible mean that the HW will still be fully
functional with both versions of the driver, which is not the case here.
am3352 DTS must use the ti,am3352-rtc to have the expected behavior.
Using the ti,da830-rtc version will not make the board working as
expected. So we cannot claim the compatibility.
This way, we can add new matching compatible as 1st and maintain old
compatible string for backwards compatibility.
ex:
compatible = "ti,am3352-rtc", "ti,da830-rtc";

Bottom-line, if you get rid of the old compatible entry, you will not
have to play some trick with the entries order.
