Bindings are for h/w, not drivers...

Please make this a DT schema.

If PTP is the only function of the chip, you don't need to append 
'-ptp'.

What's the 'x' for? We generally don't use wildcards in compatible 
strings.

Hi Rob,

Welcome back.  Thank-you for providing feedback.

Yes, will remove 'driver'.

Sure, will give it a try.

Okay, will remove '-ptp'.  Thanks.

We were hoping to use 'x' to represent a single driver to match the various
part numbers 8A34001, 8A34002, 8A34003, 8A34004, 8A34011, 8A34012, etc.

What should be used instead of 'x'?

Thanks,
Vincent

Enumerate all the part numbers. Are the differences discoverable in
some other way? If so, then 'x' is fine, but just add a note how
models are distinguished.
