I don't have a better suggestion for this, but it does smell rather like
other bridge binding (iio-hwmon for example) where we have had push back on
representing something that doesn't really exist but is just a way to
tie two bits of hardware together. Those kind of exist because we snuck
them in a long time back when no one was paying attention.

So this one may need more explanation and justification and I'd definitely
like some DT maintainer review on this at a fairly early stage!
(might have happened in earlier reviews but it has been a while so I've
forgotten if it did)
