According to [1] it is reserved, and it's reserved in the I3C spec anyway (see "Table 9 I3C Slave Address Restrictions" in the I3C spec). > > > + > > + + second and third cells: should encode the ProvisionalID.

One extra question for you: should I refer to the I3C_DEV(), I3C_DEV_WITH_STATIC_ADDR() and I2C_DEV() macros in the bindings doc? And if I do, should I use them my example?
