Would it make sense to have a family-specific fallback "renesas,rcar-gen3-rpc",
bseides the SoC-specific compatible value?

Doesn't the driver have a need to access the RPCD2 clock?
At least on R-Car V3M, it needs to program the Divider Clock Register
(DIVREG).

Can't this be derived from the flash subnode?
