Drop nodename, we do not enforce it for device schemas.

Why qcom, not arm? Description and title suggests it is generic.

If it is SoC specific, then what is it exactly? IP block of SoC? Then it
would miss SoC specific compatibles.

You need to describe the items

Why this cannot be deducted from SoC-specific compatible?
