I'm all for common bindings, but I want to see more than 1 user before 
accepting this. There's been some other postings for similar h/w 
(AFAICT) recently.

This is a Linux implementation detail and debatable whether the core 
should do this or drivers.

So I guess multiple properties is to encode all the modes into DT like 
pinctrl does. Is that really necessary? I don't think so as I wouldn't 
expect modes to be defined by the consumer, but by the provider in this 
case. To use pinctrl as a example, we could have pad setting per MMC 
speed. That has to be in the consumer side as the pinctrl knows nothing 
about MMC.
