That means WLAN *and* Bluetooth *and* the PMU that manages power. If you're using the QCA6390 on a device-tree system then you should probably model at least the WLAN node and the PMU and the problem with supplies is fixed. But if you don't have the supplies, that's alright for downstream. > Again, I don't see this as a blocker.

Can you clarify your comment "the supplies > are really there"? You mean inside the PCI board?

I refer to the QCA6390 chipset itself which is also more than just PCI. The Bluetooth interface doesn't use PCI at all. On the boards I'm working on, the chipset is just soldered to the main board. If your detachable board "just works" then it must be wired in a way that enables WLAN the moment it's plugged in but this doesn't happen over PCI. The chipset has a power input and GPIOs to enable each module. Also: I doubt you need DT for your detachable board?
