Hi Krzysztof,

The Low Power Timer (LPTIM) hardware isn't fully backward compatible.

At driver level, as indicated in the cover-letter, same feature list as
on STM32MP1x is supported currently. This is probably what makes it look
like it's compatible, but it's not fully compatible.

The hardware controller is a bit different. Some registers/bits has been
revisited among other things. This is the purpose for these new compatibles.

Please find driver-related answers each driver part.

Best regards,
Fabrice
