All NXP documentation refers to this as FRDM-IMX8MPLUS.
But compatible strings have a certain pattern to be followed so
we should really go with: "fsl,imx8mp-frdm",
But for model and all references in text and commit message
we should follow the documentation and use FRDM-IMX8MPLUS.
So, model should be model = "NXP FRDM-IMX8MPLUS";
Thanks,
Daniel.
