Linus had mentioned that he could take a rename in 3.14-rc for this
driver which is really what we had in mind here. Since the binding
doesn't become stable until 3.14 is actually released I was under the
impression that this is ok without keeping a deprecated compatible
string. I notice that Tomasz had comments about this type of situation
in http://www.spinics.net/lists/devicetree/msg18010.html
