Hi Srinivas,

Given that the change request introducing this restriction looks quite
generic and that we've heard reports of other shipping platforms having
the same restriction, could we make this slightly more generic?

I.e. dropping the MSM8996 from the flag name and perhaps use a bool
property in devicetree to toggle the flag, instead of adding compatibles
as we figure out which Qualcomm platforms has this restriction.

Bjorn
