This is RFC, so I am ignoring it, but just in case before you send v2
with the same:

You described the desired Linux feature or behavior, not the actual
hardware. The bindings are about the latter, so instead you need to
rephrase the property and its description to match actual hardware
capabilities/features/configuration etc.
