Okay, the binding document will be changed in the next patch version.

Yes, agree it and I tried it before. But, it seems that the device tree doesn't support
negative value with "-" prefixed and there is no device tree related API used to get
the negative value from .dts. Thus, I tried to add an additional flag to present
negative value.
