Sorry for the confusion, as explained in the binding documentation,
S2MPS15 is a multi-function device which has rtc, regulator and clk 
provider as a sub-blocks. And each of these sub-blocks are represented
as child node of parent MFD node. Out of these only clk controller child 
node needs its own compatible string to populate of_node structure of 
the device so that it can access properties of this sub-node in 
drivers/clk/clk-s2mps11.c.
I just followed "Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/s2mps11.txt"
to implement s2mps15.
