Since the card is already in released kernels we can't just remove the
old compatible strings, we should continue to support them.  I'm also a
bit unsure about adding a generic DPCM compatible string - it really is
a Linux specific thing.  While code reuse in the implementation is good
so factoring out the card is good I'm not sure we want to bake in the
idea that this is a strong abstraction so keeping a list of specific
compatible strings might be better.
