It's confusing and probably not accurate. In your series fsd is three
things in the same time: an architecture, a SoC and a board (DTS). The
last two should definitely be different. You probably have some eval
board (how it is called also in Tesla open source git) or some specific
product board.

I cannot judge how different this is from Exynos subarchitecture -
looking at patches it is not different - so I could understand a FSD
sub-arch with only one SoC.
