The process design is specified on the corresponding datasheets for these SoCs, which are flying somewhere around the internet.

SM8475 is a respin of SM8450 on a different process node, which probably forced some electrical changes. Document the SM8475 compatible used to describe the PMIC GLINK on this platform.
