It will depend on the how much difference. We can't predict future. We will
discuss at that time.

We use dwc IP. Only difference was external glue logic. layerscape use
difference files.

If you follow next patches, you will be confused. Some function will use
imx7_xxx_reset(), imx8_xxx_reset. We will add more soc support.

It was not easy to distinguish imx6_xxx is for all imx6 chips or all imx
chips. If you are expert at imx chips, any name should be okay. Good naming
will help for all reviewer and contributor.
