[PATCH v1] arm64: dts: qcom: monaco-evk: Use correct sound card compatible to match SoC

[Mohammad Rafi Shaik]

The Monaco-EVK board is based on Qualcomm's QCS8300 SoC. The DTS
previously reused the sound card compatible as "qcom,qcs8275-sndcard",
which is based on existing coverage. To maintain clarity and consistency,
the naming conventions for the compatible should reflect actual SoC
rather than the board. Therefore, update the sound card compatible as
"qcom,qcs8300-sndcard" to avoid potential confusion.

So who is going to use qcom,qcs8275-sndcard compatible? I don't see any
DTS using it.

The other patch claims that changing binding would be ABI break, so
obviously here is actual impact on users.

Also, the other patch explains that it is the same hardware, so we are
back at previous discussions (sc8380xp, sa8775p etc): we do not rename
compatibles just because your prefer something else now.

That's a NAK.

Best regards,
