So you don't care about DT backward compatibility because when a
workaround will be needed for one of the IPs, then you will have to
update the old dtb to use it.
Unless you are sure that the IP is the same, doing
{ "s2mps15-rtc", S2MPS14X },
is probably the best way to handle that. Note that I personally don't
care about the DT ABI, I'm just pointing out what may happen ;)
