Well from the implementation point of view, only the QMC HDLC driver uses this
property.

>From the hardware description point of view, this property means that the time slots
handled by this channel are connected to the framer. So I think it makes sense for
any channel no matter the compatible (even if compatible is not present).

Should I change and constraint the fsl,framer property to the compatible presence ?
If so, is the following correct for this contraint ?
   --- 8< ---
   dependencies:
     - fsl,framer: [ compatible ];
   --- 8< ---

Hervé
