I am sure I asked this question before (in context of a different
driver), but why do we need this compatible if we already have
pm8941-pwrkey compatible? Isn't pms405-pwrkey compatible with
pm8941-pwrkey as far as power key block goes? In which cases do we need
new compatibles and when can we reuse existing ones? Rob?

Thanks.
