Actually, it would be a bad idea to keep "simple-bus" as a compatible.

Practical example:
1) Firewall controller forbids a device probe by marking the device's
node as populated (OF_POPULATED flag).
2) The simple-bus, which is simple, populates all the devices
from the device tree data, overriding what the firewall bus has done.
3)=>Forbidden device's driver will be probed.

I think it's best to keep one compatible. If someone wants these drivers
as external modules, then it'll be best to handle this differently.
I'll resubmit with a single compatible for V2, please do not
hesitate to comment on the V2 if you're not okay with this.

Best regards,
Gatien
