Also, another thought - the bus is not usually encoded in the compatible
string, so it would be good to remove that.

No, that does not mean that you have to keep this in the binding. I know
Rob had some comments that might invalidate this binding entirely, but
if that does not happen then I think think that the tacoma devicetree
needs to have a device-specific compatible added for the tpm that it has.
You could of course retain the generic fallback compatible however.
