Hi David,

Thanks for respinning these and adding the docs, some suggestions inline 
(sorry for the nitpicks).

Pixel 3 (blueline) and Pixel 3XL (crosshatch) would be a better title I 
think (starqlte is not the best example imo). These two can be combined 
into one section.

The Pixel 3/3XL are based on the Snapdragon 845 SoC. They are supported 
by the generic qcom_defconfig with the google-pixel3.config config 
fragment::

	make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=.output qcom_defconfig 
google-pixel3.config qcom-phone.config
	make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=.output -j$(nproc) 
DEVICE_TREE=qcom/sdm845-google-blueline

If building for crosshatch use 
``DEVICE_TREE=qcom/sdm845-google-crosshatch`` instead.

Kind regards,
// Casey (she/they)
