The original driver uses e.g. aspeed,ast2500-i2c-bus for the
subordinate controllers. While the register layout changes, I'd prefer
we try to use the existing compatibles rather than introducing a new set
and causing some confusion.

Further, what you're proposing here is effectively being used to select
the driver implementation, which isn't the purpose of the devicetree.

My preference would be to reuse the existing compatibles and instead
select the driver implementation via Kconfig. Or, if we can figure out
some way to do so, support both register interfaces in the one driver
implementation and fall back to the old register interface where the
new one isn't available (I don't think this is feasible though).

This isn't quite right with respect to your binding description above :)
