We expect one PCS driver to support the 'IPQ' family of Qualcomm 
processors. While we are initially adding support for IPQ9574 SoC, this 
driver will be easily extendable later to other SoC in the IPQ family 
such as IPQ5332, IPQ5424 and others. Therefore we used the name with 
suffix '_IPQ'. Hope it is fine.
