This builds on top of bindings for previous Samsung PMIC devices, so
that's why it keeps the compatibles for children, I guess. No one
complained about this at v1-v2 reviews, so when I joined reviewing in v3
I did not, either.

I don't think the compatible should be here, but I also don't want to
stall that patchset. I understand that it is inconsistent review from my
side, because other similar patchsets receive comment to drop the
compatible. But I don't think we will be fair asking to drop the
compatible now, when we did not ask for that in the early versions at all.

Best regards,
