How can any driver match for "85xx" if two completely different
devices use it as device name?

All entries in "compatible" are independent of each other.  So
there still is a "85xx" in there.

Yes, you can keep the existing "compatible" for, ahem,
compatibility reasons -- but that doesn't mean you should
add "85xx" to new (incompatible!) nodes.

I hope so :-)
