PATCH v2 1/1 x86: dts: ce4100: Use defined compatible string for PCF8575 chip

The binding definition for the PCF857x GPIO expanders doesn't mention a "ti,pcf8575" compatible string. This is apparently because TI is only a second source - there is no functional difference between PCF8575 chips manufactured by TI and NXP, and the same board might be populated with either depending on availability.

This is not a problem in practice because the I2C core uses of_modalias_node() before matching drivers and this strips the manufacturer name.

---
v2: Correct the claim that this is a practical problem.
