No, for RZ/G2L you have:

    renesas,r9a07g044c1 for r9a07g044c12
    renesas,r9a07g044c2 for r9a07g044c22
    renesas,r9a07g044l1 for r9a07g044l13 and r9a07g044l14
    renesas,r9a07g044l2 for r9a07g044l23 and r9a07g044l24

i.e. the compatible value lacks the final digit.

For RZ/G2UL, I do not know if we have to distinguish between
r9a07g043u11 and r9a07g043u12.

In light of the continued discussion for [PATCH 02/16], perhaps it's
good to keep it anyway?
