Are there definitely no users? I see there are no dts with a
"mcp,mcp23***" compatible string, but are there any boards already out
there with this hardware that someone might be using and a currently
release kernel supports?

With the bcm/broadcom => brcm change, we marked the old vendor prefix as
deprecated (but left the support code).

If we can 100% guarantee no-one's using the compatible string, I'm happy
to change it. Otherwise we just have to mark the old string as
deprecated.

Thanks,
Mark.
