We can always differentiate later and introduce new compatible. Declaring a compatible right now would be useful only if we really cared about using the workaround on older DTBs. Since I cannot judge the difference (I don't have the datasheet of S2MPS15) then I don't see the need of adding new compatible/name for the "same device". Of course maybe there is such need? Alim?
