Just because the Linux driver doesn't use it isn't a reason. What if
there is another OS driver for it? The binding is the h/w description,
not what the driver uses currently.

- Step 1 of Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt says so
- I only review the binding generally, so my ack or reviewed by only
applies to it.
- It makes the commit history of the DT only tree[1] more logical.
