I can't say for sure at this point, but I think instead of searching
for a node by compatible I would want to represent the relationship
between the nodes semantically in the device tree. We can address that
when we get there, though. If we're stuck with device-provided device
trees that don't fully represent the relationships we might have to
keep kludges for searching.
