Keep rather alphabetical order (so both 5018 together).

I also do not understand these at all. Why adding bus type to
compatible? This rarely is allowed (unless it is PCIe controller within
soc).

IPQ5018 SOC has in-built PCIE controller. Here QDSP6 will bring up
external(PCIE) and internal (AHB) wifi radio's. To separate AHB, PCIE
radio's properties, i have added bus type to compatible.

It's the same device - WCSS - right? We do not create multiple nodes and
compatibles for the same devices. Bus suffixes are almost never parts of
compatibles.


No it's not the same device. WCSS on inside IPQ5018 and WCSS attached
via pcie to IPQ5018. Here QDSP6 managing both WCSS's.

So for better clarity i will use attached SOC ID in compatible.
Below are the new compatible's.

- qcom,ipq5018-wcss-mpd //IPQ5018 internal radio
- qcom,ipq9574-wcss-mpd //IPQ9574 internal radio
- qcom,qcn6122-wcss-mpd //IPQ5018 attached radio

What mandates that there's just one QCN6122 device attached to PCI?
Assuming fixed PCI configurations like that makes me worried.


IPQ5018 always has one internal radio, attached pcie radio's depends on no of pcie ports. IPQ5018 has 2 pcie ports, so it supports max two qcn6122 devices. One compatible (qcom,qcn6122-wcss-mpd) itself support's number of pcie devices controlled by QDSP6.

Thanks & Regards,
