We (Toradex) have SoMs with the SX-PCEBE from Silex, which uses the
WCN7850. Silex provided multiple board files for this to deal with
separate regulatory regions. Thus, we need a mechanism to select which
one to use even though the PCI ID and machines are the same.

I agree that they could be one patchset and considered replying there,
but felt it easier to discuss this with the relevant patch already
attached. As the other binding already validates this property there is
no real dependency or ordering problem, and I thought this would ease
review.

Kind regards,
Ernest
