Hi Mita,
thanks for your comments.

The whole idea, of having a sub-node which includes all variant specific
attributes is to separate the UFS Platform device component, from the need
to know "qcom" or any other future variant.
I believe it keeps the code more modular, and clean - meaning - no
#ifdef's and no need to include all variant attributes inside the driver
DT node.
in that case, we simply have a DT node that is compatible to the Jdec
standard, and sub-node to include variant info.

I hope you agree with this new design, since it provides a good answer
to every future variant that will be added, without the need to change the
platform file.

thanks for your time, Mita
please share your thoughts.
