That's a convention but not necessary, a no-op.

But how do you identify device then?
Or are you saying that device description is valid even if there is no compatible string?

One more thing
commit 524dfbc4e9fc ("dt-bindings: clock: si5351: convert to yaml") is showing
that compatible property was required in txt file.

-Required properties:
-- compatible: shall be one of the following:
- "silabs,si5351a" - Si5351a, QFN20 package
- "silabs,si5351a-msop" - Si5351a, MSOP10 package

I can update commit message to describe it too.
