I don't see what is special here. Different h/w is supposed to have
different compatible strings. I'd word this more, so that you don't have
to change it again if another compatible string is added.
OK I'll try to come up with something to that effect, the reason it was
not like that from the beginning is my universe is expanding and step
by step gaining knowledge of how this thing has been used by ARM.

I'll try to write something generic about hardwired divisor lines and
compatible strings telling how they are wired.
