Okay, if the version register can be relied on, then this is fine.
Just add a comment that further differentiation is done using a
version register.

That's a licensed IP which is a bit different. Though generic names on
those are useless too. There's different versions and different
integration quirks.

This is fine too, but again if a version or capability register is
sufficient, no need to put this into DT. Maybe someday h/w designers
will clue in and always have version and/or capability registers.
