Argh.

This binding is currently missued if another TCPCI conform chip is used
which requires no special handling. I could have dropped this commit
since the 'tcpci' is already present at i2c-device-id level.

Argh.. you're right, sorry. I will rephrase it.

The nxp,ptn5110 device was the first driver which implements an TCPCI
conform driver. The driver already support the tcpci binding for i2c-id
devices as I mentioned above. IMHO this whole binding (file) should be
converted and the nxp,ptn5110 compatible should be marked as deprecated.

As said above this particular NXP chip is an TCPCI conform chip. There
is nothing special about it. There are other vendors like OnSemi (in my
case) which implement also an TCPCI conform chip. The (Linux) driver
already binds to the generic tcpci compatible if the i2c-core falls back
to the i2c-device id. It's even more confusing that the i2c-id supports
only the generic binding the of-compatible support only the specifc one.

Please see above, I hope this helps.
