To be more clear, answer to the following questions:
1) does driver work with wrong DT configuration?
2a) if yes, does it make sense, i.e. the hardware functioning usefully?
2b) if yes, can we guarantee there are no broken configurations in the wild?

Depending on the answers correct your code and/or commit message.
