No fallback is implemented in code. Using a kernel that doesn't have this patch series but a more recent devicetree: DT has both devicetrees & the kernel will know which driver to use.
That is opposed to having only compatible = "ti,j7200-usb". If using an old kernel, it would not know what driver to match it to.

The goal of the DT schema pre-patch was to allow all three:
compatible = "ti,j721e-usb"; compatible = "ti,am64-usb"; compatible = "ti,j721e-usb", "ti,am64-usb";
I've followed the same scheme & added both of those:
compatible = "ti,j7200-usb"; compatible = "ti,j7200-usb", "ti,j721e-usb";
I messed up the ordering in the added 'items' options, but the logic seems right to me. And dtbs_check agrees. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
