Of course. Can you submit a similar patch to the Gen3 datasheet ? ;-)

It's not just that it can, it will.

Given that the device currently has registers and clock only, I wanted to keep
the DT bindings simple. My plan is to introduce new compat strings later as
needed, if needed, when incompatible FCP instances will be introduced. Feel
free to challenge that :-)

Ah, that's finally merged, great.

It's the latter, I'll enforce it in Kconfig in the patch that adds FCP support
in the VSP driver (and keep the stubs here for Gen2).
