I still do not understand why we need to have a get_id callback.
The use cases I have seen so far, which I have been intentionally rejecting, are
mainly solvable by creating other compatible entries. And really, if you
have, say a bandgap, chip that supports multiple sensors, but on
SoC version A it has 5 sensors, and on SoC version B it has only 4,
or on SoC version C, it has 5 but they are either logially located
in different places (gpu vs iva regions), these are all cases in which
you want a different compatible!

Do you mind sharing why you need a get sensor id callback?
