Fine if you have some evidence the ratio of versions to SoC are much
more than 1:1 and the versions correspond to something (IOW, you
aren't making them up).

We went down the version # path with QCom and in the end about every
SoC had a different version.

So you are going to turn around and make this an array? If you already
know you have changes, I'd rather review this all at once.

You just have to compare the child node names or compatibles.

The binding should have no impact on that. If for testing, use debugfs.
