We'll know when we bring up the hw.  But the main point is that we
shouldn't expect, for example, the high 8 bits to tell us the
generation, any more than we could if it was a pci id.

We may not end up needing to use this new binding much, I _think_ we
should be able to read it from the fw in most cases, at least for
android devices.  I'm unsure at this point about windows/chromebooks.

I mean qcom,sc8280cx-adreno is human readable but not really very
informative.  Encoding the chip-id is just a way to avoid the
qcom,chipid field in the bindings, which qcom used downstream.  The
new pattern accomplishes the same thing as the existing one, but
without trying to imply some meaning that becomes increasingly
non-existent as qc moves to decouple the id from marketing names.
