I'm not sure that word 'broken' is a correct one here. Is the platform
code using this driver in the upstream already? If so, where is it
located?

My suggestion is still the same, i.e. split platform data to actual
hardware properties and platform quirks. We might be able to use quirks
even in case of auto configuration.

I'm pretty sure this one (besides that fact that it misses documentation
update and '-' instead of '_' as ordered by DT policy) is unacceptable
in DT since it represents *OS related* quirks. (Btw, is_private is also
should not be there in the first place)
Rob Herring (Cc'ed) might shed a light how to proceed in this case.
