Same device, you cannot have different compatibles. The way how the same
(literally same chip) device sits on the bus is not part of the binding,
thus no different compatibles.

I prefer not to have warnings and that was the problem with original
patchset. I am fine with splitting different models between different
binding schemas/files, but not the same device in two files.
