It does not seem to me that CMM has any version register, nor there
are differences between the different Gen3 SoCs..

However, even if we now define a single compatible property for
gen3/gen2 and we later find out one of the SoC needs a soc-specific
property we can safely add it and keep the generic gen3/gen2 one as
fallback.. Does it work for you?

Thanks
