"mediatek,ipm-spi-quad" include the feature of "mediatek,ipm-spi-
single".

IPM is an version of SPI ip, we use this IP with ICs now.
So I define a compatible strings "mediatek,ipm-spi-xxx", then I can
reuse this strings with many ICs.
Currently, we plan to upstream MT7986 IC, this IC has two spi
controller ports, one support single mode only, the other support
single & quad mode both.
for example:
spi0 {
  ...
  compatible = "mediatek,ipm-spi-single";
  ...
}

spi1 {
  ...
  compatible = "mediatek,ipm-spi-quad";
  ...
}
