1. QPIC NAND will use compatible string "qcom,qpic-nandc-v1.4.0"
2. QPIC NAND will 3 BAM channels: command, data tx and data rx
while EBI2 NAND uses only single ADM channel.
3. CRCI is only required for ADM DMA and its not required for
QPIC NAND.

* Qualcomm NAND controller

Required properties:
-- compatible: should be "qcom,ebi2-nandc" - EBI2 NAND which uses ADM
- DMA like IPQ8064.
-
+- compatible: must be one of the following:
+ * "qcom,ebi2-nandc" - EBI2 NAND which uses ADM DMA like IPQ8064.
+ * "qcom,qpic-nandc-v1.4.0" - QPIC NAND v1.4.0 which uses BAM DMA like IPQ4019.

Looks like you have 2 SoCs and 2 versions of h/w. Use SoC specific
compatible strings.

We have 3 versions of NAND HW currently.
EBI2,
QPIC version 1.4.0
QPIC version 1.5.0

and multiple Qualcomm SoCs which use any one of these.

The original plan was to have compatible string for NAND version since
same NAND hardware is being in different SoC and SoC dtsi will simply
use its NAND version compatible string like other Qualcomm hardwares
