pin data?

Convention is <soc>-<ip block>

Need to make the order of compatibles clear. Generally that is done with 
'followed by "qcom,pdc"' after the list of compatibles. But then, do you 
really need a fallback. This seems like a block that would change 
frequently. If there's not more than 2 or 3 chips with the same block, 
don't do a fallback.

This is backwards.
