Yes, it is dual mode controller.

what's your suggestion? create a total new yaml file for target mode (like
PCI ep)?
All target information(interrupt, reg, clock) are the same as master.

Or added "mode" property instead of using difference compatible string?
It may cause kconfig become complex to handle difference mode at the same
drivers.

Look like Rob and krysztof don't likes 'silvaco,i3c-target-v1'.
