Normally this should be board specific.

In the past we made them SoC specific and provided a way to do board 
specific changes based on compatible. Recently we stopped adding new 
drivers as most of these drivers turned out to be identical and lots of 
code duplication.

Having these compatibles will help both the userspace UCM and provide 
hooks to do any board/soc specific configurations.
