Just reading this description, this is sounding quite like a "software
behaviour" type of property, which are not permitted, rather than
describing some element of the hardware. Clearly you are trying to solve
an actual problem though, so try re-phrasing the description (and
property name) to focus on what exact hardware configuration it is that
you are trying to special-case.
Krzysztof suggested that the samsung,s2mps11-acokb-ground property in
samsung,s2mps11.yaml is addressing a similar problem, so that could be
good to look at.

Also, the dt-binding patch should go before the patch adding the
property to the driver.

Thanks,
Conor.
