There is a recommendation in the kernel documentation quoted below:

7) The wildcard "<chip>" may be used in compatible strings, as in
the following example:

- compatible: Must contain '"nvidia,<chip>-pcie",
"nvidia,tegra20-pcie"' where <chip> is tegra30, tegra132, ...

As in the above example, the known values of "<chip>" should be
documented if it is used.

But I am not sure if this is still a hard requirement. If so, we should list the processors in the binding.

Regards,
Leo
