You don't have to add compatible matching to the driver if you don't
need any special handling for K2G ATM. Your dts should have:

compatible = "ti,keystone-k2g-gpio", "ti,keystone-gpio";

this way, the driver continues to probe using "ti,keystone-gpio", and
when you really discover a need to do some special handling for K2G, a
kernel update will do without the need for a DT update.
Sure that is better to do as currently i do not see any differences
between k2g and other k2 devices.
Thanks,
Sekhar
