I think there is some misunderstanding, mu suggestion was to keep the 
"samsung,exynos5-gsc" compatible entry in addition to the new introduced 
ones: "samsung,exynos5250-gsc" and "samsung,exynos5420-gsc". That's in
order to make your changes possibly backward compatible, in theory 
the updated driver should still work without changes in dts.
