That's doable, for sure, but the downside is that it opens the door
for nonsensical configurations as, for example, "zii,rave-sp-niu" as a
parent SP device and "zii,rave-watchdog-rdu" as child watchdog and it
forces majority of child device drivers to split their compatibility
strings into 2 or more "flavors". My preference was to avoid that and
instead deal with having to having to keep things in sync.

I think Guenter already addressed those, so I'll update the code with
his suggestions in v11.
