If you are adding more compatibility strings, then this implies that the
AM43x timers are not 100% compatible with any other device listed (such
as am335x or any omap device). That's fine but you should state that in
the changelog. If the AM43x timer registers are 100% compatible with
existing devices you should not add these.
