No, I meant that these are set by the fact that exynos5440.dtsi is including
the skeleton.dtsi, since the dtsi set these properties in the top node.

I could do it in this patch... but I don't see why that should be needed since:

a) All the others Exynos SoC dtsi file don't explicitly set these properties
   since are set by skeleton.dtsi when including it. So not adding them keeps
   exynos5440.dtsi consistent with the other SoC dtsi.

b) Adding those to the Exynos SoC dtsi when removing the skeleton.dtsi is done
   in a later patch of this series. Again, making it consistent with all the
   Exynos SoC dtsi since none will include skeleton.dtsi anymore.
