I'd go for "should" instead of "needs". I would say it would be nice
to settle on marvell.

There are already instances of "mrvl" in the kernel, see

	drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-pxa.c
	drivers/tty/serial/pxa.c
	drivers/rtc/rtc-mv.c
	drivers/rtc/rtc-sa1100.c

Do people mind if the original compatibilities are left in to avoid
having to rename .dts file contents, or are we happy to go with just
"marvell"?

Also, it seems that some of the marvell bluetooth firmware is defined
to be mrvl prefixed.
