Arasan is an IP vendor, and those IPs are usually embedded in specific
SoCs. I guess Rob was suggesting to define something like:

  compatible = "<soc-vendor>,<ip-revision>", "arasan,<ip-revision>";

This way you can differentiate minor changes/tweaks between each SoC
(each SoC vendor usually enable/disable specific features based on
their needs).

We already know this is a clock, hence the unneeded clk_ prefix. Please
drop it.

Thanks,
