mainlining shenanigans
36bf061160
The current compatible strings for SSD130x I2C controllers contain both an "fb" and "-i2c" suffixes. It seems to indicate that are for a fbdev driver and also that are for devices that can be accessed over an I2C bus. But a DT is supposed to describe the hardware and not Linux implementation details. So let's deprecate those compatible strings and add new ones that only contain the vendor and device name, without any of these suffixes. These will just describe the device and can be matched by both I2C and SPI DRM drivers. The required properties should still be enforced for old ones. While being there, just drop the "sinowealth,sh1106-i2c" compatible string since that was never present in a released Linux version.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
