Add a new compatible string for 14nm ufs phy present on msm8996
chipset. This phy is bit different from the legacy 14nm ufs phy
in terms of the clocks that are needed to be handled in the driver.

For future chipsets (after MSM8996), we have to use this same
compatible
strings? If yes, "msm8996" in compatible string name may cause
confusions?
may be we should start following v1/v2/... terminologies for this?
something like "qcom,ufs-phy-qmp-v2" to start with?
Are we trying to complement the actual IP hardware versioning with this
?
Isn't it possible that we will end up using v2 for more than a couple
of
actual IP hardware versions ?
I have seen cases wherein the IP versions are preceded by the
SOC names, the IPs appeared first in. And if the same IP is used in
subsequent SOCs, we use same compatible string. This, rather,
makes things easier to comprehend - it's the same IP that was
used on older SoC.
Ok, if this is the standard practice across the board then we should be
fine with this. You may add my Reviewed-by: Subhash Jadavani

I am fine with adding versions to the compatible string as well.
But like i asked earlier - are we just creating versions for our
own understanding, or are we also complementing the actual
IP hardware versions ?
Thanks
