The change is non-bisectable and causes issues all other users of DT
(other projects, systems etc). This is discouraged in general, so you
should describe it. The commit msg lacks answer to the main question:
Why? You focused only on what you are doing, but why you are doing is
actually more important for such change.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

As it's seen on any other pinctrl subdriver that calls code from a main 
driver, each subdriver needs to have a different compatible string. We 
don't want the same compatible string to match a different subdriver's 
pinmux data as it's not for our SoC.

I'll add what I typed above to the commit log.
