By duplication, I meant the same set of reg-names (in different order).

ipq9574 also has it.

Will discard these patches from the patchset -

	dt-bindings: PCI: qcom: Use sdx55 reg description for ipq9574 Varadarajan Narayanan
	arm64: dts: qcom: ipq9574: Reorder reg and reg-names Varadarajan Narayanan

Will add mhi for ipq9574 and post the next version. Is that ok?

Thanks
