Huh. I must have missed something then. Ah, I see the problem. Since
you didn't CC me on the bindings change I searched myself. I found
patch #7 in your series ("dt-bindings: msm: dsi-controller-main: Add
compatible strings for every current SoC"). In that patch everything
is flat. I didn't notice patch #8 in your series which changes this. I
would just get the compatibles right the right time. Looking at patch
#8 I see that Dmitry already suggested this.

So that means this is fine with me. A slight nit that I suspect Bjorn
would prefer you to blow past the 80 column limit and put both
compatibles on one line, but it's not huge in my mind.
