Given how widely used DesignWare stuff is and usage in FPGAs it does
seem reasonable to have compatibles for just the IP rather than SoC
specific ones - we do have quirked versions that have been modified but
these are things that people manage to deploy without needing that and
SoC specific compatibles for FPGA instantiations would get painful.
