That's not what I wanted to suggest. Up to now in upstream kernel compatible 
mediatek,mt8195-mmsys enables support fro vdosys0. The vdosys1 is not yet 
upstream, so no support.
If we change the compatible, we should keep mediatek,mt8195-mmsys as fallback of 
"mediatek,mt8195-vdosys0" so that older device tree blobs won't break with a 
newer kernel.
For "mediatek,mt8195-vdosys1" we do not need a fallback compatible as the code 
never reached upstream, so no breakage expected.

Hope I explain myself now.

Matthias
