It helps to understand that "magic" BCMBCA acronym. The full name was
found in Florian's pull request for 5.20.

Say Y if you intend to run the kernel on a Broadcom Broadband ARM-based
BCA chipset.

This looks fine to me, can we get an arch/arm/mach-bcm/Kconfig
equivalent as well?

It is bit complicated about the history and its chips of the BCA group..
Now it is part of Broadband Video Group as known as BVG. WLAN chip is no
longer belong to BCA or BVG while we still support its software release.
So I would rather keep it in magic term ;) But if we really want to
spell out the full name, we suggest to use "Broadcom Broadband Carrier
Access (BCA) origin SoC". Same apply to Kconfig for arm32 platform.

OK, I can use that and amend the patch accordingly.

I'm leaving it up to you whether this name should be updated then.
