Hello Konrad,
First of all, I'm sorry for the very late reply.

I prefer using the commercial name to identify the device.
"Holly" is the smartphone project codename and that is mentioned almost nowhere:
the aim here is to enhance readability as to make it immediately understandable
that this devicetree is for the Xperia M5 device.

Right, I'll remove that in v2.

I'm sorry, but I can't understand the sense of adding that compatible string to
the mix. To the kernel, it doesn't mean anything - and we already have another
string advertising the specific machine, which is "sony,xperia-m5".
Of course, there is no Xperia M5 with a different SoC and, even if there was a
xperia-m5 with a different SoC, we anyway have both a machine compatible and a
SoC compatible in here, so that would still not pose any issue.

Updating the device to the latest software version will give you a bootloader
that fills that in, but the first-ever software release contains one that will
not do that in particular conditions (fastboot boot).

I'm afraid that's not possible, as the bootloader is reading the devicetree
and requires these nodes to follow this naming.

Will fix in v2.
