If you mean creating a pm7250b-8.dtsi with pm7250b copy-pasted but the
SID changed from 2 & 3 to 8 & 9, I can do that if that's the way
forward.

If this was done, I'd also say then that pm7250b.dtsi should be renamed
to e.g. pm7250b-2.dtsi since it's currently sitting on SID 2 & 3.

I really don't mind either way, I'd just like to have some way for now.

Is this something that could be fixed long term? Especially since
Qualcomm is reconfiguring PMICs on different addresses nowadays maybe
there's more or a push to do this?
