Yes, I agree the first case fits better, but I believe there is also a
possible third case:

// 8550 is fully compatible
"qcom,sm8475-pmic-glink",
"qcom,sm8550-pmic-glink",
"qcom,pmic-glink"

The reason why I believe this is that I've found SM8475 to include some
elements such as eUSB or PHY sequences found in more recent SoCs such as
SM8550.
I guess that's the case since SM8475 is a respin, but I'm not sure.
