Both names > are mixed here. sunxi is the sun#i SoCs from Allwinner, Allwinner is the manufacturer and the SoC "code" names used everywhere in the kernel for their SoCs are sun4i, sun5i, sun6i, etc. Most people refer to these SoCs as sunxi. This is also what the linux-sunxi mailinglist in the Cc is about. The official devicetree vendor prefix for Allwinner is allwinner, hence the allwinner in the compatible name, see e.g. also Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/sun4i-lradc-keys.txt Which also uses sunxi / sun4i everywhere except in the compatible vendor prefix.
