Which two SoCs are you referring to ?
I am not removing the device specific compatible. I am only removing the 
additional fallback compatible.

As in,

compatible = "microchip,sam9x7-spi", "atmel,at91rm9200-spi";

instead of,

compatible = "microchip,sam9x7-spi", "microchip,sam9x60-spi", 
"atmel,at91rm9200-spi";

for the sam9x7 devices.

Hope this is clear. If I have it wrong please let me know.
