I do not see different properties in the bindings, so what do you mean that it evaluates something else? Anyway, whatever driver does is rarely good argument for change in bindings, because we focus here on the hardware, not on one, chosen OS implementation. > > If it's fine if there are additional properties in the dt-bindings which Where are they?

What driver does, might not matter in some cases. What matters is if these properties are applicable to this hardware. Best regards, Krzysztof
