I'm not saying I want it generic. Quite the opposite. I don't think we
should have it either generically or vendor specific. The main thing I
have a problem with is the timing information because then we're more
that just data. Without that we're talking about a bunch of properties
for register fields or just raw register values in DT. That becomes
more of a judgement call. There's not too much value in making a
driver translate a bunch of properties just to stuff them into
registers on init. But then just allowing any raw register value to be
in DT could be easily abused.
