+Qualcomm Quad Serial Peripheral Interface (QSPI)

+The QSPI controller allows SPI protocol communication in single, dual, or quad
+wire transmission modes for read/write access to slaves such as NOR flash.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible:  Should contain:
+               "qcom,sdm845-qspi"

Does someone have a more generic compatible string that can be added
here to indicate the type of quad SPI controller this is? I really doubt
this is a one-off hardware block for the specific SDM845 SoC.

The compatible string used to be "qcom,qspi-v1".  ...but Rob Herring
requested [1] "an SoC specific compatible string".  While we could do
a compatible string like:

  "qcom,sdm845-qspi", "qcom,qspi-v1".

I'm curious if that buys us anything.  From all my previous experience
with device tree it is fine to name a compatible string for a
component based on the first SoC that used it.  If we later find that
this is also used in an "msm1234" we could always later do the
compatible string for that device as:

  "qcom, msm1234-qspi", "qcom,sdm845-qspi"

...and we don't need to try to come up with a generic name.
Obviously, though, I'll cede to whatever Rob says here though.
