I guess we can rename pm8921-core.c to pm8921-ssbi.c. And then "QPNP"
variant can become pm8xxx-spmi.c. This way the name reflects the
physical interface used for particular pmic. We need to drop out the
"xx41" because this driver will support PMA8084 as well.

Then we can try to extend the pm8xxx subsystem drivers (pmic8xxx-keypad,
rtc-pm8xxx, pm8xxx-vibrator, pmic8xxx-pwrkey) to support pm8xxx-spmi
(qpnp) depending on compatible string.
