That doesn't matter too much. trivial-devices.yaml is a bunch of
completely unrelated devices which happen to have the same binding. We
could probably take that farther with things like trivial clock
providers for example.
Having 'reg' vs not is pretty clearly something that should be different
binding.

If it's just add a compatible and nothing else somewhere, I'd do that.
If it's more than that, then I'd make a new binding doc.
