AFAIU bcm94908 is a reference board name. I think I see some
inconsistency in naming Broadcom's reference boards DTS files.

If you take a look at in-kernel DTS files:
find ./arch/arm*/boot/dts/ -name "*.dts"
99% of them are prefixed with family/SoC name. I did the same for
bcm4908 (and Northstar) boards. So it's
<soc>-<manufacturer>-<model>.dts
e.g.
bcm4908-asus-gt-ac5300.dts

To match that I *think* you should actually call your file:
bcm4908-bcm94908 (or bcm4908-94908 depending on actual board name)

First of all: am I correct here?

Secondly: could you do that? I know many DTS files named ignoring SoC/
family prefix. Still maybe we could change it as some (this) point?
