I doubt anyone will ever use new mainline kernel with older dts/dtb
so IMHO it makes sense to queue a patch removing support for the
deprecated compatible just now and don't bother with a warning.

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/exynos/exynos7-decon.txt
arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4415.dtsi
would just need to be updated in same release, I can prepare a patch
for these files.
