Please wait for the name to be at least agreen upon upstream. Not to mention that your commit message doesn't explain, why do we want it, why is it different from the normal monaco-evk.dtb and why it's being enabled as a part of IQ-8275-EVK machine.

What is AC here?

Hi @ricardosalveti ,

Here, ac refers to QCS8300-AC SKU, a variant of monaco SoC (QCS8300) with 20 TOPS NPU capability and a simplified two-PMIC power delivery network (2x PM8650AU), as opposed to the QCS8300-AA SKU used in the existing monaco-evk.

The BT WA changes were not carried in the current promoted tag - and it's was missed to add it in the refactored change for monaco-evk and monaco-ac-evk - hence moving this PR to draft PR for now until proper clean changes are bought in ...

The corresponding kernel promotion of the same also will be reverted ...
