I am using T1042 as base dts and T1040 includes T1040 + l2switch. 

so if I use T1042 in compatible. It will give wrong field for someone working on T1040QDS.

best solution should be to have 
 a) have T1042 in compatible field.
 b) T1040 dts override T1042 to t1040 in compatible field.
it will give correct picture
