In driver, compatible string is silvaco,i3c-master instead of
silvaco,i3c-master-v1.
And what makes the driver right & the binding wrong? AFAICT, this is an
IP sold by silvaco & the -v1 suffix was explicitly requested during
review of the binding.
The driver existed for the long time. DTS files already use
silvaco,i3c-master.

There are two options, one change doc, the other change dts and drivers.
I think change doc is easiest ways.

If there are v2 in future, we can added silvaco,i3c-master-v2 in future.

If everyone prefer change drivers and dts, I can work on new patch. Just
break back compatiblity.
No, because Rob explicitly pointed out too generic name.

Is it some way to avoid implementing feedback or how does it work?
Downstream use silvaco,i3c-master to match driver. Anyways, miss match
happened.

option 1: fix doc
option 2: fix driver and dts

what do you perfer? 
Best regards,
Krzysztof
