Allwinner A64 has DE2 CCU which is similar to H3/H5 SoC.

Yes, but the fallbacks should be documented too as I found in the rest of the series.
AFAIK we haven't been doing this, and this is likely to create some confusion, because they aren't actually mentioned anywhere in the driver.
The binding doc needs to written such that compatible can be validated to contain the correct set of strings. We can't do that now with free form text, but when we move to a schema we will. Rob
