The problem with the binding above is that you may run out of aliases depending on how many aliases one to-be-attached module needs or how many modules will be attached. And another add-on module with non-repogrammable devices may occupy addresses from the defined pool above. I am not perfectly happy with the assumption that all undescribed addresses are automatically free. That also might need DTS updates to describe all clients properly. But this change only needs to be done once, and it will improve the description of the hardware. So, I could agree this is the better option of the two.
