Hello,

when porting the kernel from a i.MX25 based machine to 4.17-rc1 (but
still using the old dtb) can failed to probe. After some research we
noticed that a commit that was merged in the v4.16 merge window
introduced a change that broke using an older device tree.

This series first commit fixes the issue.
The second patch introduces a fallback compatible which matches the
usual dt-style on i.MX. (Before v4.16-rc1 there was a wrong fallback
compatible that was removed.)

Best regards
Uwe
