Have we sorted this lg- vs. lge- ?
There are both: arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-msm8974-lge-nexus5-hammerhead.dts vs arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8026-lg-lenok.dts
+ patch flying for msm8992-lg-bullhead-rev-101.dtb original: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20211201231832.188634-1-virgule@jeanthomas.me/ rebased by me: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20220113233358.17972-2-petr.vorel@gmail.com/
Kind regards, Petr
