Subject: fix is too generic and binding is redundant. You already state
this is binding in your prefix. Describe more precise what you are doing.

That's not how it works and it does not look like you tested the DTS
against bindings. Please run `make dtbs_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst or
https://www.linaro.org/blog/tips-and-tricks-for-validating-devicetree-sources-with-the-devicetree-schema/
for instructions).

Don't deprecate some piece of entire compatible list, but entire list.

The commit which deprecates compatible should bring a proper one.
Otherwise at this point we have kernel only with deprecated compatibles.


Best regards,
