Tool btattach currently only supports QCA default soc type
QCA_ROME, this change adds support for all other QCA soc types
by adding a option to specify soc type.

I am guessing this means that there is no way to determine the soc from 
the kernel without the assist of the IOCTL? I also see this is a 
required parm. Is this not something that can use something like a 
devicetree for discovery so that the type of soc can be a property of 
the system instead of being manually specified?

yes for tool btattch scenario. tool btattch is mainly used before the final board configuration phase(change DT|APCI to enabel BT), so it can't get such soc type info from board configuration.
for tool btattach, it doesn't need to touch any system configuration and is mainly used for variant evaluation tests before the final product implementation phase

let me take below process to explain its usage scenario.
Customer often buys a BT module from a vendor for BT evaluation, the BT module have BT chip embedded and are externally powered, the module also has a BT UART converted mini usb port,
they connects the BT module to generic ubntu PC by a USB cable, then they run tool btattach at the machine to enable BT and perform variants BT tests, when the evaluation results is expected,
they maybe buy the embedded chip and integrated into there target product's PCB, then change and compile DT to enable BT formally.

thanks

Thanks for the explanation for a total newb. This is really cool to 
learn about. Really appreciate your taking the time to help me out.
