I'ts not a good idea to use wildcards in compatible values.
Ask yourself: is this valid for any (future) value of "x"?
Hence please use "maxim,max9611" or "maxim,max9612".
The only difference between these two is a noninverting vs. inverting
input-to-output configuration. Does the driver need to care?

shunt-resistor-micro-ohms?
