This is one compatible string though, what you describe is for when use

compatible = "mips14KEc", "mips14Kc", "mips";

The "mips" in Stevens patch is probably the vendor prefix. Maybe a more
correct compatible would be.
How about using something like mti (for MIPS Technologies, Inc.) instead
of MIPS to differenciate the architecture from the company name?

The convention for vendor prefixes is to use the stock exchange prefix, giving us "mips". The same problem exist for ARM Ltd. vs architecture and they use "arm" as a prefix unconditionaly.
