Don't you want to keep that compatible for backward compatibility?

What is wrong with the current compatible string?

If you want to support i.MX8QM just add in its dtsi:

compatible = "fsl,imx8qm-sc-rtc", "fsl,imx8qxp-sc-rtc"

and add a dt-bindings entry for "fsl,imx8qm-sc-rtc"

Yes, I thought this is (was?) the recommended practice for IP blocks in
SoCs that don't have their own version (vs something like a Synopsis
block used many places):

* Use the first SoC to have the block as the base compatible for the
block.
* Always add the current SoC, in additional to the base, in the SoC's
dts's list of compatibles. Even if unneeded at the present.
* The driver will list the base compatible in the match table, and will
add new ones for specific socs if/when there is a need for it.

Nothing wrong, just want to make it aligned with other SCU drivers, like
SCU watchdog, SCU thermal etc., the driver ONLY contains "fsl,imx-sc-xxx"
compatible string, then for new SoC, we can just add it as compatible or
fallback compatible string, no need to do any change for driver.

I am OK if we can just use " fsl,imx8qxp-sc-rtc" as fallback compatible string
for later SoCs.

Make sense, I was recommended to make the fallback compatible string aligned
for all SCU drivers, for me, I am OK with either way, so if you think it is NOT necessary
to do it, we can drop this series.
