Is this an or or a xor?

For the former case, which is the most general, which can be used as a
fallback?

How about something like:

- compatible: should contain:
  * "xlnx,ps7-ddrc-1.00.a" for <DESCRIPTION HERE>
  * "xlnx,ps7-ddrc" for any compatible variant

Is there any need at all for the "xlnx,ps7-ddrc" string? The driver
doesn't care about it.

Cheers,
Mark.
