I'll have to think about this. It is related to the i2c-atr, so I think
it might be a common thing.

I'd say this should be common. Where the i2c-atr properties should live
is another question though. If the I2C-atr stays as a genericly usable
component - then these bindings should be in a file that can be
referenced by other I2C-atr users (like the UB960 here).

Yep. All the links, link, serializer and alias nodes/properties are new things here, and I guess these could be used by other deser-ser systems. That said, I don't have any experience with other systems.

Yes, I totally missed these.


I think the i2c-alias might need to be common as well?

Perhaps...

I was also thinking that the serializer addresses could be taken from the i2c-alias-pool. But maybe that's not a good idea, as the serializer-access and remote-peripheral-access are a bit different (e.g. no ATR when accessing the serializer).

And I was thinking that, at least here, the alias addresses can be "anything", so they could be reserved dynamically at runtime, without any predefined aliases. But that might be a bit confusing to the user.
