You did not describe the case, but apparently this came with
81311c03ab4d ("net: ethernet: stmmac: add management of clk_csr
property") which never brought the bindings change.

Therefore the property was never part of bindings documentation and
bringing them via driver is not the correct process. It bypasses the
review and such bypass cannot be an argument to bring the property to
bindings. It's not how new properties can be added.

Therefore I don't agree. Please make it a property matching bindings, so
vendor prefix, no underscores in node names.

Driver and DTS need updates.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
