CPU models are not typically prefixed with "LS", so "Loongson 3A4000/3A5000/3A6000".

Here is because when you do programming, variable name should prefix with letters.

Commit messages, comments, and log messages etc. are natural language, so it's better to treat them differently. No problem to keep code as-is IMO.

Then you get two name for a single chip,  take  LS7A1000 as an example.

You name it as Loongson 7A1000 in commit message,  and then you have to define another name in the code,  say LS7A1000.

"Loongson 7A1000" is too long,  not as compact as LS7A1000.

This also avoid bind the company name to a specific product, because a company can produce many product.

Nah, the existing convention is "LS7Xxxxx" for bridges


But I see there are document[1] which named LS7A1000 bridge chip as Loongson 7A1000 Bridge,

See [1] for reference, who is wrong in this case?
