The reason for this patch is to keep the bcmbca board dts in the same 
format and keep everything in the same yaml file. 

Not a good reason to change compatibles. You can have the same format
and keep everything in same YAML file without replacing compatibles.

Understand 4908 was 
already upstream but luckily there is no driver in linux and u-boot that 
uses these 4908 compatible strings. They are only used in the board dts 
as far as I can see.  So it does not really break anything in the end, 
unless someone use them in any driver but never upstream their code...

So maybe just briefly mention it in the commit msg?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
