This is good reason/explanation, but open the binding please - you will
see several specific children, e.g. S2MPG10. You need to be very
explicit in commit msg that your Exynos850 is always fitted with these
PMIcs. If not, then you need some other compatibles, because binding
should be complete.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
