I was going to mention this too. Maybe

- compatible: Shall contain a device-specific compatible string follow
  by "lvds-encoder".

That's stronger than Rob's suggestion, as I don't think we should allow
omitting the device-specific compatible string in any case to make sure
we can preserve backward compatibility in the future.
