The block '&timer { …}' change compatible string for 'timer: timer at 110c0000’ timer'. It refers to it using ’timer:’ label.
'arm,armv7-timer’ has ’timer’ node name without label and cannot be addressed in underline dts files.

Initially my patch series was for rk3188 only. I declared rk3188 timer using rk3228 compatible string[1].
Heiko reviewed the series and suggest[2] to use another ‘compatible=‘ binding for rk3188. And
suggest[3] to update rockchip,rk-timer.txt bindings, like mmc/rockchip-dw-mshc.txt does.
So I updated rockchip,rk-timer.txt. rk322x family has has two parts rk3228 and rk3229. So I replaced
rk322x to rk3228 and rk3229 and updated dts file to match bindings.
