The binding for SDIO might require different set of properties (other than ones inherited from generic SDIO or SPI bindings) than one for SPI. So probably different compatible values might be justified. Did we already have such case before?

It is implied by SPI bindings, but it might be a good idea to have this stated here as well. > > > +- interrupts : Should contain interrupt line > > +- interrupt-parent : Should be the phandle for the interrupt > > + controller that services interrupts for this device > > +- vio-supply : phandle to regulator providing VIO > > +- power-gpio : GPIO connected to chip's PMEN pin > > should be vendor prefixed: ti,power-gpio Hmm, out of curiosity, is it a rule for this kind of properties? I can see both cases with and without prefixes when grepping for "-gpios" in Documentation/devicetree/bindings.

Maybe one from ti,has-eeprom or ti,config-eeprom would be better name for this property?
