To make the single compatible string match the DT binding, I'll have to
write the binding a little differently. I wrote it like this:

compatible:
oneOf:
- description: NPCM750 based boards
items:
- enum:
- nuvoton,npcm750-evb # NPCM750 evaluation board
- const: nuvoton,npcm750


I guess I could do something like this:

compatible:
oneOf:
- description: NPCM750 development board
const: nuvoton,npcm750


And later add this part, when needed:

- description: NPCM750 based boards
items:
- enum:
- vendor,foo-bar-bmc
- const: nuvoton,npcm750


What do you think?


Thanks,
Jonathan Neuschäfer
