Please don't top-posting.  Inline your replies so that people can

I still don't quite understand why it needs to introduce 2 compatible
strings.  If hw0 and hw1 are different from interrupts, clocks, power
domain, and etc, couldn't you use the same compatible string (e.g.
"mt8195-jpgenc") and provide them different DT attributes?
