so with this compatible fallback scheme, I am trying to understand what
do I need to do if I have to add support for another SoC for instance.

I just update the binding with the new SoC compatible (lets say qcom,sc7280-llcc-bwmon)
and in the device tree node use it as
	compatible = "qcom,sc7280-llcc-bwmon", "qcom,sdm845-llcc-bwmon", "qcom,msm8998-llcc-bwmon";
without any updates in the driver?
