As you wish.

I don't think so.

What do you suggest? Keep only the marvell,cn9130 compatible? I am not
sure having the three compatibles is actually useful but for the reader
I find it more friendly. Of course the model name will reflect the
number of external CP but from a computational point of view that's
hard to parse if needed.
