The "driver" part was a mistake, I will drop it. However, the "subsystem"
terminology seems relevant here, as the SoC documentation refers to this IP
group as the "Ethernet Switch Subsystem". If it's okay with you, I'll change
this to "Qualcomm IPQ4019 Ethernet Switch Subsystem (ESS)" in the v2.

Agreed, I'll change the compatible.
