Erm, no.

"compatible" entries should always contain the real part name to reduce
the chance that separate parties come up with the same "compatible"
name for two different devices.

Other than that, the name really doesn't matter, it's just _some_
string that uniquely identifies a device; and the device bindings will
document what is what.

Of course, if no binding is written, it becomes a lot more important
that names have a sane value ;-)
