Based on the discussion in previous patch [1/6]. If required we will have
separate binding.

To discuss the above comments, let me provide a diagram that is part of the
commit log of DTS patch [6/6].
The WSI connection in RDP433 is represented below:
+-------+ +-------+ +-------+
| pcie2 | | pcie3 | | pcie1 |
| | | | | |
+----->| wsi |------->| wsi |------->| wsi |-----+
| | idx 0 | | idx 1 | | idx 2 | |
| +-------+ +-------+ +-------+ |
+------------------------------------------------------+
The above three blocks represent the QCN9274 WiFi devices connected to their
respective PCI slots. The dotted line represents the WSI connection that connects
these three devices together. Hence, the WSI interface is part of the QCN9274 device.
To describe this WSI hardware connection in the device tree, we are adding three
properties inside the WSI object:
1. qcom,wsi-group-id:
In the above diagram, we have one WSI connection connecting all three devices.
Hence, “qcom,wsi-group-id” for all three devices can be 0.
This cannot be implied by the compatible property, as explained below:
Let’s take the case of a platform that can have four QCN9274 WiFi devices. Below
is one possibility of a WSI connection:
+-------+ +-------+ +-------+ +-------+
| pcie2 | | pcie3 | | pcie1 | | pcie0 |
| | | | | | | |
+---->| wsi |------>| wsi |--+ +-->| wsi |----->| wsi |----+
| | idx 0 | | idx 1 | | | | idx 0 | | idx 1 | |
| +-------+ +-------+ | | +-------+ +-------+ |
+--------------------------------+ +-------------------------------+
In this case, QCN9274 devices connected in PCIe2 and PCIe3 will have the same
“qcom,wsi-group-id”. This group-id will be different from the “qcom,wsi-group-id”
of QCN9274 devices connected at PCIe1 and PCIe0.
2. qcom,wsi-index:
This is a unique identifier of the device within the same group. The value of
wsi-idx is represented in both the above cases (RDP433 and the 4 WiFi device
platform) in the diagram itself.
3. qcom,wsi-num-devices:
Represents the number of devices connected through WSI within the same WSI group to
which the device belongs.
In the case of RDP433, all devices will have this number as 3.
For the second example with four WiFi devices but with two WSI connections, the
value of “qcom,wsi-num-devices” for each device will be 2.

In the example, we have represented only one WiFi node. Although it indicates
that there are a total of three devices in the same WSI connection with group-id
0, we can add all three WiFi nodes in the next version if required.
