Hence wouldn't it be better to update the driver first, and the DTS in
the next release, so you can remove the "renesas,cmt-48" portion with
the single DTS update?

This is how it was done for R-Car Gen2:

v4.15 has commit 83c79a6d8d7f4821 ("clocksource/drivers/sh_cmt: Support
separate R-Car Gen2 CMT0/1"),
v4.16 has commit bf50e0ab4f5062bb ("ARM: dts: r8a7791: Update CMT compat
strings").
