Sometimes with Allwinner (and X-Powers), two IPs seem identical until we
discover something that is slightly different. When this happens, we
have to add a compatible to differentiate both. However, we would also
need to change the Device Tree to change the compatible. We would need
to handle the driver behaviour for both Device Trees.
So better anticipate a possible difference so that we don't have to do
some hacks in the driver to handle the device correctly.
As always, Chen-Yu or Maxime may know better so I'm just stating what I
seem to recall.
Quentin
