Sure, make sense.

> Description
> ===========
> Samsung Exynos SoCs reuse several devices from older designs, thus
> historically we kept the old (block's) compatible only. This works fine and
> there is no bug here, however guidelines expressed in
> Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-bindings.rst state that:
> 1. Compatibles should be specific.
> 2. We should add new compatibles in case of bugs or features.
>
> Add compatibles specific to each SoC in front of all old-SoC-like compatibles.
> This will also help reviews of new code using existing DTS as template. No
> functional impact on Linux drivers behavior.
>
> Future
> ======
> If reasonable, I will do similar work for Tesla FSD and ARMv7/ARM32 Exynos
> bindings and DTS.
