No. This goes against the usual way of doing device tree compatible
strings. As far as probing goes, all the currently supported switches
are compatible with 6095. We can at run time determine the specific
switch model. This list is just a pain to managed, and has no value.
We only need to add a new compatible string when we cannot determine
at probe time what a switch model is, or we need to read the ID
register in a different way.
