Synopsys call the whole module
"DesignWare HDMI Transmitter (TX) IP Solution":

https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_hdmi_14_csds_tx
https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_hdmi_20_csds_tx

That includes the PHY. I'd prefer keeping the -tx in there to
differentiate from a possible future "snps,dw-hdmi-rx":

https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_hdmi_14_csds_rx
https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_hdmi_20_csds_rx

That common compatible doesn't have to be used by any driver. It's just
there to show these are the same/similar IP core.
If a common driver without any SoC specific knowledge could be written,
that one would match against the common compatible.
