[PATCH] dt-bindings: mfd: Ensure 'syscon' has a more specific compatible

[PATCH] dt-bindings: mfd: Ensure 'syscon' has a more specific compatible

[Rob Herring]

Using 'syscon' alone should be avoided as compatible strings should be
specific enough to identify the exact set of registers contained. Update
the schema to ensure at least 2 compatible strings are present.

FYI, there's 43 cases of this on arm32 in my testing.

I'm assuming you're okay with this?
