This patch allows a new kind of compatible string for LPDDR parts in the
device tree bindings, in addition to the existing hardcoded
<vendor>,<part-number> strings. The new format contains manufacturer and
part (revision) information in numerical form, such as lpddr3-ff,0201
for an LPDDR3 part with manufacturer ID ff and revision ID 0201. This
helps cases where LPDDR parts are probed at runtime by boot firmware and
cannot be matched to hardcoded part numbers, such as the firmware on the
qcom/sc7280-herobrine boards does (which supports 4 different memory
configurations at the moment, and more are expected to be added later at
a point where the boot firmware can no longer be updated to specifically
accommodate them).
