From style point of view I would prefer lower case and dashes, for
example "fairphone-5" but I'm just nitpicking, uppercase and underscores
work fine as well.
If you have different SKUs or similar which need different ath11k board
files being more specific like "fairphone-5-eu" and "fairphone-5-us" is
one option. But I'm sure Luca knows best what is needed for Fairphone,
just throwing out ideas here.

You are correct, just to be specific it's ath11k which will choose which
board file to use. I recommend always setting
qcom,ath11k-calibration-variant in DTS if you can.
Back in the day I have tried to push for the firmware team to improve
the board file selection but no success. So the only practical solution
we have is qcom,ath11k-calibration-variant in DTS.
