Now that PCS devices have a compatible string, we no longer have to bind the driver manually in lynx_pcs_create. Remove it, and convert the remaining users to pcs_get_by_fwnode.

For a reasonable window of compatibility, this should be applied one major release after all compatible strings are added.
These platforms are pretty stable. I don't think a 1 release window is sufficient. Maybe a 1 LTS release.
