sa8775p is compatible with sm8250, but only difference is sa8775p has
two instances of L3 EPSS. Initial patches were posted with two
compatibles for supporting two instances.
Later there was a comment to reuse the existing and avoid growing the
compatibles in the driver.

Initially we thought to have separate generic compatible
"qcom,epss-l3-perf" for SoCs which support L3 voting through
EPSS_L3_PERF state register. But actually, it is already supported in
the driver for sm8250 and sc7280. We can reuse sm8250 or sc7280
compatible for sa8775p.

I will update the commit text with details in the next patch revision.

Sure, I will update the patch order to bindings, driver and dt in next
patch revision and will follow the same for future patchsets.

"qcom,epss-l3" is generic compatible introduced for EPSS H/W from sm8250
SoC.  sm8250, sa8775p and sc7280 SoCs have same EPSS H/W and use
EPSS_L3_PERF register for configuring the perf level. We thought to add
generic compatible "qcom,epss-l3-perf" for configuring perf level
through EPSS_L3_PERF register.
 Later, as suggested by reviewers, looks like using a different register
cannot be a reason to have different generic compatible as the EPSS H/W
is still same on all the SoCs.
