Currently there is a wild mixture of isl, isil, and intersil
compatibles in the kernel. At this point, changing the vendor
symbol to the most often used variant, which is equal to the
NASDAQ symbol, isil, should not hurt, since the isl1208 driver
doesn't care either way.

This is a mature platform. You cannot change it. You can add the new
string, but the dts and kernel need both strings.

I would just leave it all alone and add the new prefix and mark the
others deprecated.
