Not really. If you define here specific device compatibles in select,
they must be here as well.

o you probably mix here purposes. Either you define common schema or
device specific one. If you define common, usually it does not enforce
any compatibles. You do not need select, no need for compatibles either,
although you can add above syntax if it is valid. If you write here
specific device bindings, then compatibles should be listed. Judging
from what you wrote it's neither this nor that...
