What does lvr mean?

index? Seems more like flags

That's useful...

I think we need to define this sooner rather than later if there's not a
standard connector. That's the only thing that would enforce any sort of
standard. Of course, that didn't help with SDIO.

The node name should go into the DT spec. I tend to think "i3c" would be
sufficient and aligned with i2c.
