[1/5] ARM: at91: at91sam9x5 RTC is not compatible with at91rm9200 one

Due to a bug with RTC IMR, we cannot consider at91sam9x5 RTC compatible
with the previous one. Modify DT compatibility string, even if the driver
is not yet modified to take it into account.

    Do not use wildcards in the "compatible" prop values (I guess 'x' is a 
wildcard).

Well, it is for naming a series of hardware, not for giving a generic
name that could cover different hardware.

In the sense of Atmel it is our way to call the at91sam9x5 series of
SoC: you will see that the code that covers these SoCs is always named
like this.
In fact, the hardware contained in these SoC cannot be different from
one flavor of the family to the other.

    Nevertheless, the wildcards shouldn't be used. Use the name of e.g. the 
first member of the family.

we use this across others bindings

at91sam9x5 is the name of the Family

There is not "first" there is no "last" they are all the same from a
hardware perspective. The only difference is activation of peripherals.

So, no, we will not change this.

Cf:
find arch/arm/boot/dts/ | xargs grep compatible | grep at91sam9x5
