I found the information here:

$ cat Documentation/powerpc/mpc52xx-device-tree-bindings.txt
...
The 5200B is almost the same as the 5200, but not quite.  It fixes
silicon bugs and it adds a small number of enhancements.  Most of the
devices either provide exactly the same interface as on the 5200.  A few
devices have extra functions but still have a backwards compatible mode.
To express this infomation as completely as possible, 5200B device trees
should have two items in the compatible list;
"mpc5200b-<device>\0mpc5200-<device>".  It is *strongly* recommended
that 5200B device trees follow this convention (instead of only listing
the base mpc5200 item).
...

Sorry for the noise.

Wolfgang.
