Right, the driver keeps the old one compatible, I missed that, so it
actually implements what I asked for in v7. It's fine then from ABI
point of view.

The remaining trouble is that any user of DTS (other systems, firmware,
bootloader) is going to be broken when taking the new DTS. But it's not
critical.
