I still have similar concerns as the discussion on the last version. 
This version only proves that you aren't describing h/w, but rather just 
a collection of data that some driver wants.

A driver can just as easily look-up all the nodes directly that these 
phandles point to.

And as long as we have inconsistent use of soc_device, I don't want to 
see any compatible strings related to it.
