I assume you're referring to
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mips/ath79-soc.txt

They do. An example being the ar71xx driver which has

              - qca,ar9130-eth   # Atheros AR9130
              - qca,ar9330-eth   # Atheros AR9330
              - qca,ar9340-eth   # Atheros AR9340
              - qca,qca9530-eth  # Qualcomm Atheros QCA9530
              - qca,qca9550-eth  # Qualcomm Atheros QCA9550
              - qca,qca9560-eth  # Qualcomm Atheros QCA9560

I was advised earlier to change it to qcom instead of qca. Qualcomm
itself uses the qcom, prefix for its maintained drivers while the non
Qualcomm maintained stuff uses qca.
