Sounds like the property should be made required for that integration.
This is something I went back and forth on. Where is the line drawn
between things that should be enforced in bindings and things that only
ever need to be specified once, so should just be left to the dt itself
to be the source of truth?
Having said that, I realise TI could spin a new SoC with a new dt but
use the same compatible string for the GPU;
No they can't. New SoC, new compatible.
We don't need to make a new SoC for that, our bus infra allows us to
selectively include or exclude peripherals from coherency. The GPU
being `dma-coherent` is selectable at boot time.

the "single" source of truth
then wouldn't be so single anymore. I guess by making this property
required for this compatible string, we're saying any use of it must
behave in exactly the same way, right?
