We are going to use the same compatible strings in the U-Boot and Linux for
PolarFire SoC peripherals like "microchip,mpfs-xxx" (xxx means peripheral
name, ex. "microchip,mpfs-i2c", "microchip,mpfs-rtc"....etc).
Here, we are updating compatible(existing) "microchip,mpfs-mss-gem" with
"microchip,mpfs-gem".
