There are lots of different versions of the logicvc block and it makes little sense to list them all in compatibles since all versions with the same major are found to be register-compatible.
The reason we try to be precise is because sometime, long after the driver has been merged and maintained for a few years, a bug is discovered in a specific version of the silicon.
What happens is that a fix is applied on all silicon whether it is needed or not.
If you have the precise silicon compatible, you can avoid this and target only a specific version.
