Hi Heiko,

The _single suffix was meant to distinguish this from dual-RK806
designs (e.g. EVB1/EVB2/QuartzPro64) where two RK806 PMICs are chained
as master (pmic at 0) and slave (pmic at 1). I wanted to signal "this board
has exactly one RK806, not the master half of a pair."

You're right that this is unnecessary — the EVB boards don't label
their master as rk806_master either, so there's no established
convention that _single is part of. I'll rename it to just rk806 in
v10.
