I agree with you.

But I don't like that:
"fsl,mpc5121" is already present in <mpc5121.dtsi> and after its 
inclusion in <mpc5121ads.dts> , compatible root node value is replaced 
by "fsl,mpc5121ads".

Idea is automatically generate
     compatible = "fsl,mpc5121", "fsl,mpc5121ads";
using dtsi hierarchy.

Is there a way to extend compatible values instead of replace it?
