OK, so I said it was not a binding:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/u4afxqc3ludsic4n3hs3r3drg3ftmsbcwfjltic2mb66foo47x@xe57gltl77hq/

and you here confirm, if I understood you correctly, that it goes with
the DTS like reset defines (I assume non-ID like defines?), so also not
a binding?

What are we disagreeing with?

Just to recall, Jerome asked whether you have to now use arbitrary
numbers in DTS and my answer was: not. It's still the same answer.

Best regards,
