It's up to Rob of course, but IMO it seems a nicer way forward to
include both the SoC-specific string and the "version" string in all
cases.  I'd write this for the full text:

 - compatible: Should contain a SoC-specific string and a IP version string:
      version strings:
           "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4" for sdcc versions less than 5.0
           "qcom,sdhci-msm-v5" for sdcc version 5.0
      full compatible strings with SoC and version:
           "qcom,apq8084", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4"
           "qcom,msm8974", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4"
           "qcom,msm8916", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4"
           "qcom,msm8992", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4"
           "qcom,msm8996", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4"
           "qcom,sdm845-sdhci", "qcom,sdhci-msm-v5"

   NOTE that some old device tree files may be floating around that only
   have the string "qcom,sdhci-msm-v4" without the SoC compatible string
   but doing that should be considered a deprecated practice.
