I'm not sure it makes much sense to invent multiple platform specific
strings for an IP which is completely compatible between them.
Why don't we just have a generic compatible string like "snps,ahci"
for all those compatible platforms, and only add platform specific
string when there is incompatibility on particular platform to deal
with?
Added devicetree-discuss to get DT people's opinion.
