Ah, there is indeed an issue with removing omap36xx and replacing by
omap3630.

What about the PVR/SGX driver. This needs a compatible that can distinguish
between the DM3725 and DM3730. The first is w/o SGX and the second one
with. Having all summarized as omap3630 does not allow to load the
PVR/SGX driver based on the board specific compatible entry.

AFAIR this was the original idea behind

compatible = "goldelico,gta04", "ti,omap3630", "ti,omap36xx", "ti,omap3";

Only with this we can make the SGX driver depend on "ti,omap3630" and all
other general omap36xx stuff on "ti,omap36xx".

So it seems as if there was a reason to have both, and the omap36xx is not
completely superflous to be dropped.

BR,
Nikolaus
