I think WCD is the typical prefix Qualcomm uses for its dedicated audio
codec chips. There is no WCD* chip on MSM8916/PM8916 because the codec
was split and integrated partly into the SoC and partly into the PMIC.
I guess the "wcd" name just survived for historical reasons.

Looking at "WCD9335 Audio Codec - Device Specification - LM80-P2751-29
Rev. A - Table 1-2 Terms and acronyms" apparently

  WCD = WSP codec device
  WSP = Wafer-scale package
  WSA = WSP smart amplifier

Perhaps Bjorn can fix "prefix" -> "suffix" in the commit message when
applying, doesn't seem worth resending for that alone. (Will fix it of
course in case I send a v2 for other reasons!)
