Kind of depends on the differences. If it is just fuse or packaging
differences between them, then probably okay to use the same
compatible. If the block is maybe the same, but not certain, then then
you can make the oldest a fallback (e.g. compatible =
"idt,32435-gpio", "idt,32434-gpio").

Either the first/oldest or a wildcard is fine for the filename.
