I have some trouble understanding when/if the three elements need to
be passed into the compatible string.

For example: on mx6sl ssi node:

                ssi1: ssi at 02028000 {
                    compatible = "fsl,imx6sl-ssi",
                            "fsl,imx51-ssi",
                            "fsl,imx21-ssi";

However on mx6sx node we have:

                ssi1: ssi at 02028000 {
                    compatible = "fsl,imx6sx-ssi", "fsl,imx21-ssi";

Which one is correct? Care to explain?
