NAK, for st,stih415-ssc-i2c naming.

IMO, this makes sense when the same IP integration done on different SOC
changes slightly/very differently.

But in this case the "comms" IP remains unchanged across all the SOCs.

I would still prefer "st,comms-ssc-i2c", allowing a single device driver
to match against several SoCs. ST "comms" IP it is integrated across all
the STi series of SoCs, so we don't want to add new entry in compatible
for every new SOC.
