We can probably agree that there is no ideal solution, there is some
ugliness in on way or the other. IMO the conditional
qca_read_soc_version() in qca_uart_setup() based on the vale of
'soc_ver' is far worse than a small piece of redundant code.

If qca_read_soc_version() was done in qca_setup() the code could look
something like this:

static int qca_setup(struct hci_uart *hu)
{
	...
	if (qcadev->btsoc_type == QCA_WCN3990) {
		...
		qca_read_soc_version();
		ret = qca_set_speed(hu, QCA_OPER_SPEED);
                if (ret)
                        return ret;
	} else {
		ret = qca_set_speed(hu, QCA_OPER_SPEED);
                if (ret)
                        return ret;
                qca_read_soc_version();
	}

	speed = qca_get_speed(hu, QCA_OPER_SPEED);
	qca_baudrate = qca_get_baudrate_value(speed);

	 /* Setup patch / NVM configurations */
        ret = qca_uart_setup(hdev, qca_baudrate, qcadev->btsoc_type, soc_ver);
	...
}

Yes, 'qca_set_speed(hu, QCA_OPER_SPEED)' and the error handling is
redundant, but it's only 3 lines of trivial code in exchange for
making qca_uart_setup() more consistent and not spreading
the qca_read_soc_version() calls over multiple files, depending on the
SoC version.

If you are super-convinced that the split is superior leave it as is,
I might already be doing too much bike-shedding, and after all it
isn't my code.

Sorry, I should have left more context:

> static inline int qca_uart_setup(struct hci_dev *hdev, uint8_t baudrate,
> 				 enum qca_btsoc_type soc_type, u32 soc_ver);

This is a function definition, not just a declaration. The semicolon
would make it a declaration and make the compiler unhappy about a
function body where it doesn't expect it.
