Thanks for your comments. 

Just read my previous comment in [1] and found I made a mistake.
Now I'll try to clarify it here.

Imx95 and imx93 have different AXI filter configuration. I need a 
compatible for imx95 since the driver cannot differentiate them. 

Then I need to consider below two options:
1. compatible = "fsl,imx95-ddr-pmu", "fsl,imx93-ddr-pmu"
2. compatible = "fsl,imx95-ddr-pmu"

Both of them work correctly on imx95. When I make changes in
driver for imx95, imx93 is not affected.

For basic functions, imx95 is compatible with imx93. I select the 2rd
form for simplicity. If the first form is optimal, I can change it in next
version.

Thanks,
Xu Yang
