Right, that's a problem. If we use this patch, and we add additional codes for these property to hdmi driver, then the existing dtb will be broken by dt binding fail. However, as long as I know, there is another case that phy property is used like this way; MIPI-CSI device node. And also it seems reasonable to add ddc property in similar reason if we could handle that the existing dt node is deplicated. So what we could select I think are, 1. to deplicate the existing dt node, and using this patch. 2. or, to separate phy and ddc parts as each module so that each module can bind device tree. However, this way would make hdmi part of exynos drm to be complicated because we should resolve probe ordering issue. It seems that we need to discuss and make a consensus about this issue. Tomasz and Sean, please, share your opinion. I tend to proper 1.
