The compatible should be as precise as possible, so indicate the
assembled display with display controller, typically
samsung,ams605dk01 etc, then the Linux driver is basically
a Linux intrinsic matter, but we would name that after the display
controller so as to make the basis of code sharing obvious between
the compatibles.

Yeah a datasheet would really help :/

Samsung, if you're reading this, you know what to do: give us the
datasheets, pretty please with sugar on top.
