Geert Uytterhoeven ee44d3fc9d spi: sh-msiof: Remove unneeded compatible values
The Clock-Synchronized Serial Interfaces with FIFO (MSIOF) driver
matches against both SoC-specific and family-specific compatible values
to maintain backwards-compatibility with old DTBs predating the
introduction of the family-specific compatible values.

For RZ/G1, the SoC-specific compatible match entry can be removed from
the driver: their DT always had the family-specific compatible values,
and thus there was never a need to add the SoC-specific compatible
values to the driver.

For R-Car Gen2 and M3-W, the SoC-specific compatible match entries can
be removed, too, as there are a few points in time where DT
backwards-compatibility was broken for other reasons:
  - Legacy DT clock support is no longer supported since commit
    58256143cf ("clk: renesas: Remove R-Car Gen2 legacy DT clock
    support") in v5.5, and the addition of "renesas,rcar-gen2-msiof" to
    DTS in v4.11 predates the completion of the clock conversion in
    v4.15,
  - Legacy DT LVDS support is no longer supported since commit
    841281fe52 ("drm: rcar-du: Drop LVDS device tree backward
    compatibility") in v5.18, and the addition of
    "renesas,rcar-gen3-msiof" in commit 8b51f97138 ("arm64: dts:
    r8a7796: Use R-Car Gen 3 fallback binding for msiof nodes") in v4.11
    predates the LVDS conversion in commit 58e8ed2ee9 ("arm64:
    dts: renesas: Convert to new LVDS DT bindings") in v4.20.

For R-Car H3, the SoC-specific compatible match entry cannot be removed,
as its purpose is to handle an SoC-specific quirk.
